    I believe the edge devices would use netboot, so they load the kernel and user land into RAM over a network and have no disk in them at all.

    Here’s hoping that image stays clean😉

      Right, I mean that the boot image is stored somewhere in a solid state. Whether that’s on a centralized server or locally, no clue. But makes sense to load it remotely, easier to maintain proper versioning that way and ensure cross-compatibility.
