Use the patch in `patches/sedutil-static.patch` to build sedutil-cli as a static
binary.

Setting up `/boot`
------------------

Place `boot.sh` and `warm-boot-conf.sh` in `/boot`. Modify `warm-boot-conf.sh`
with any settings you might need. The default behaviour is to let `boot.sh`
search the whole `/boot` disk for any kernels and pick the one with the newest
file modification date, which is most often the one we want to run.

Loading the PBA image into the shadow MBR
-----------------------------------------

With the drive unlocked:

sedutil-cli --loadPBAimage password /path/to/opal.gptdisk /dev/nvme0n1

This takes a long time (several minutes for a few megabytes). Make a smaller
drive image (`dd` step above) if you want it to go faster.

Testing
-------
This has been tested on a single machine, with an Intel 6000p NVMe drive
