Speedy Distro Porting via the cpu Command (osc22)

Last year, I ported [oreboot](https://github.com/oreboot) to the Allwinner D1 SoC that is found on the Nezha SBC and many other boards now. For a boot loader environment, I chose to embed [LinuxBoot](https://linuxboot.org), and then partitioned an SD card with two root filesystems for testing: OpenWrt, which is small and just ran right away, and openSUSE, which required some extra effort. I was happy to see a new D1 board advertised with openSUSE support, though the process of getting there was tedious enough that I wanted to find an improvement to the workflow. In this talk, I will recap how I modified the openSUSE RISC-V root filesystem, moving an SD card back and forth, and showcase a faster approach instead by leveraging the [`cpu`](https://github.com/u-root/cpu) command that lets us do that iteration over the network. Eventually, we will see how that can be leveraged to continuously test Tumbleweed on real hardware through OpenQA and a corresponding setup, which can also be applied to other hardware, such as ARM.
