deploy updates to Live-ISOs

It would be very useful to be able to deploy updates to the Live-ISOs somehow, so we don't have to rebuild and flash usb-sticks on every change. We would be able plug in a USB-stick once and boot into it and use that PC as a development environment.

Our current development environment consists of VM's, but actual hardware could help keep our project stable. Also, GPU support would be a lot easier to develop that way, since we have access to single machines with GPUs.

This would primarily help us, the developers, and not the users of this project since we decided that the target audience should have a plug & play solution without having infrastructure expertise, meaning they probably do not have a usecase for this.

Approach

We recently used deploy-rs to update NixOS systems unrelated to this project. After some research this could help us here aswell.
