I use them in a Jenkins instance to test arm64. I specifically don’t give the Jenkins user any root access so am unable to use mdconfig to create the ESP image. I would use makefs however support for generating fat images hasn’t made it into a release yet, and it doesn’t build on 12 as many needed structs are protected by _KERNEL.

I don’t care about the image being installed, but would like to be able to generate it when needed on the latest 12 release without needing root access.
