        HELBOOT never hardcodes operating systems — each one is a **provider**:
        a manifest plus an answer-file template (see
        [providers/README.md](https://github.com/Kreuzbube88/helboot/blob/main/providers/README.md)
        and [ADR-0005](https://github.com/Kreuzbube88/helboot/blob/main/docs/adr/0005-provider-capability-architecture.md)).
        The details below are exactly what's needed to write that manifest —
        the more you can fill in, the faster this can be implemented.

      options:
        - Unattended installer from ISO (kickstart / preseed / AutoYaST / autoinstall-style)
        - Interactive installer from ISO, no unattended answer file (network-boot only, TrueNAS SCALE-style)
        - Pre-built disk image written to storage, no installer at all (DietPi/HAOS-style)
        - Other / not sure

        **Note on "pre-built disk image" operating systems:** HELBOOT
        currently has no way to write a raw disk image to a target over
        the network — there's no installer to network-boot into, so
        nothing is delivered at all (unlike an interactive-installer OS,
        which HELBOOT can at least network-boot). Requests of this kind
        are tracked as a capability request (network image-write), not a
        regular provider addition — expect it to take longer.
