Previous commits marked findings as ✅ that were actually superficial or
broken. This commit fixes the real problems honestly.
Real fixes:
- Argon2id KDF: Fixed via preseed partman/early_command that patches
partman-crypto's cryptsetup luksFormat to include --pbkdf argon2id.
Previous luks-kdf-configure.sh "auto-conversion" was dead code
(cryptsetup luksConvertKey needs stdin passphrase, nothing provides it).
Now the hook is an honest verifier, not a fake converter.
- src/security-hardening.sh: Removed sshd_config generation entirely
(was still generating it despite claiming client-only)
- AIDE init: Removed || true error swallowing, now reports failures
- COMPLIANCE.md: Marked CMMC L3 and FedRAMP as aspirational targets
with honest explanation of what's missing (3PAO, org controls)
- VERIFICATION-REPORT.md: Added self-review warning about contradictions,
fixed wrong preseed path (config/preseed.cfg → includes.installer/)
- Removed phantom knel-compliance-check.sh reference from COMPLIANCE.md
- encryption-setup.sh: README now says "Argon2id (via early_command)"
instead of bare "Argon2id" which was false
- demo.preseed.cfg: Added same Argon2id early_command
- Added .dockerignore (was missing)
- Fixed .gitignore *key* pattern (too broad, matched keyboard.conf etc)
Still remaining (honest assessment):
- C-06: Git history scrub (needs git-filter-repo, destructive)
- H-09: Build cache integrity (design work needed)
- M-11: Docker base digest pinning
- Phase 3: Test suite overhaul (85% grep-based, not behavioral)
- Phase 4: Documentation cleanup (threat model, etc)
- ISO NOT rebuilt since fixes
786 tests pass, 0 shellcheck warnings.

The preseed file needs to be in config/includes.installer/ for live-build
to embed it into the Debian installer. Previously it was in config/ which
doesn't get picked up by lb build.
- Moved config/preseed.cfg -> config/includes.installer/preseed.cfg
- Updated all test files to reference new path
