fix(ci): x86 fleet uses generic-amd64, not genericx86-64-ext#2926
Merged
Conversation
The screenly_ose/anthias-x86 balena fleet is provisioned for the
generic-amd64 device type (GPT-boot generic x86_64). The workflow
was downloading the older genericx86-64-ext image (MBR-boot generic
x86_64) — a distinct device type in balena's catalogue. Run
26119779970's balena-build-images (x86) failed at `balena os
configure` with:
The device type of the provided OS image genericx86-64-ext, does
not match the expected device type generic-amd64
Switch BALENA_IMAGE for the x86 leg to generic-amd64. The Pi legs
(pi2/pi3/pi4-64/pi5) are unaffected — they all completed
download/preload/configure on the same run.

Issues Fixed
Run 26119779970 failed only on `balena-build-images (x86)` at `balena os configure`:
```
The device type of the provided OS image genericx86-64-ext, does not match the expected device type generic-amd64
##[error]Process completed with exit code 1.
```
The other matrix legs (pi2/pi3/pi4-64/pi5) completed download/preload/configure cleanly — so the npm switch from #2925 worked, the only remaining issue is the x86 device-type mismatch.
Description
The `screenly_ose/anthias-x86` balena fleet is provisioned for `generic-amd64` (GPT-boot generic x86_64). The workflow was downloading `genericx86-64-ext` (the older MBR-boot variant) — a distinct device type in balena's catalogue:
```
genericx86-64-ext -> Generic x86_64 (NEW) state= NEW
generic-amd64 -> Generic x86_64 (GPT) (NEW) state= NEW
```
Switch `BALENA_IMAGE` for the x86 leg to `generic-amd64` so the downloaded OS image matches the fleet's provisioned device type.
