=== Handling pre-signed devices

Pre-signed Raspberry Pi 5 devices cannot execute the key writer without a modification to `rpi-sb-provisioner`, but you can bypass the key writer entirely by using a special file and removing the progress file:

----
$ sudo rm /var/log/rpi-sb-provisioner/<serial>/progress
$ sudo touch /var/log/rpi-sb-provisioner/<serial>/special-skip-keywriter
----

WARNING: This will disable metadata fetching and manufacturing database creation as of writing. This may be resolved in a future version of `rpi-sb-provisioner`.
