Ships firecracker (primary) + qemu (fallback, covers qemu-system-x86_64 on amd64 and qemu-system-aarch64 on Graviton) with baked guest kernels, the chainguard-server-hypervisor host contract, and the proven aws-base access tail, delivered via atomic bootc upgrades on top of composefs. Root filesystem for the wolfi-vm aws-server-hypervisor AMI.",
