Description

I tested the automatic install via a .json file param, server profile minimal, limine, headless true.
While there is a timeout of 5 seconds, there is no default kernel set in limine, the selection defaults to the CachyOS folder/category instead of the linux-cachyos-server kernel, and nothing boots. I do not think this is a desirable behaviour, severs need to rceover automatically from reboot, power loss etc.

Research direction

Trace automatic JSON installation for the minimal server profile and its Limine configuration generation, focusing on how the default kernel and timeout are selected. Reproduce the described headless setup and verify that Limine selects linux-cachyos-server and boots automatically after reboot or power loss.
