* Post-setup changes required to select which one user should boot
* i.e., change initramfs / kernel lines to -v8 in config.txt / config-kernel.txt
* https://chat.rockylinux.org/rocky-linux/pl/e7h9sqcb4pdnpqpwah3wcjxjac
* Neil and Sherif spoke to risc-v folks at FOSDEM/SOOCon24
* No exact timeline, but hoping to get leads on hardware to use
## Open Floor
* Stack: the wiki looks abandoned because the index page is empty/stubbed
## Action Items
* Follow up on Orange Pi5
* Follow up on Libre boards
* Create variant for 16k kernel
* Kernel Packer for altarch
* Actually put content on wiki index/landing page so it doesn't look abandoned
