Node-based build actions that start a filesystem watcher fail inside the VM: ```text Error: ENOSYS: function not implemented, watch errno: -38 syscall: 'watch' code: 'ENOSYS' ``` The compact kernels use `allnoconfig`, which omits the inotify system calls. Enable `CONFIG_INOTIFY_USER` in both ARM64 and x86_64 kernel configurations; it also selects the required `CONFIG_FSNOTIFY` support. The ARM64 kernel builds and boots, and an unchanged Vite filesystem-watcher test now passes inside the VM. Both resolved architecture configurations contain `CONFIG_INOTIFY_USER=y` and `CONFIG_FSNOTIFY=y`.
