Nano Kernel Appliance - RackNerd VPS Deployment

Target: RackNerd VPS (172.245.19.182)
Purpose: Minimal Linux kernel that boots directly into Research Stack swarm
Size Target: ~10MB kernel + ~50MB initramfs (vs 200MB+ standard)

Deployment

# On local machine
./build-nano-kernel.sh
scp nano-kernel/* root@172.245.19.182:/root/nano-kernel/

# On RackNerd VPS
ssh root@172.245.19.182
cd /root/nano-kernel
./kexec-boot.sh
# VPS now runs nano kernel with Research Stack
