board_setup: convert cpio rootfs to tar#34
Merged
Conversation
Some kernelci jobs supply rootfs.cpio.gz (buildroot baseline). tuxrun decompresses it to rootfs.cpio, then post-processing fails because the script only looks for *.ext4* or *.tar* files. Convert the cpio to a tar. cpio and tar carry device nodes the same way. tar is what other fastboot boards (dragonboard-845c, qrb5165-rb5) already use, so the script's tar branch handles the rest.
