seatd alone didn't fix it (getty-autologin gives cage no logind seat; 5x respawn
then systemd start-limit -> black). Switch to greetd's initial_session, which
creates a real logind session WITH A SEAT and auto-runs cage+calamares (no login
prompt). Calamares' striplive restores the tanin-greet greetd config on the target.
Drop the getty-autologin + /root/.zprofile hack.

VM test showed: boot menu (TANINUX branding ✓), root autologin ✓, motd ✓,
then cage failed: libseat 'Could not connect to /run/seatd.sock'. The getty
autologin has no logind seat, so run seatd in the live (disabled on the target,
where greetd uses logind). qt6-wayland so calamares (Qt) runs under cage.
