netboot works fine. However almost all of the Arm platforms including
the Rpi3 make terrible gateways and in general l3 packet path
machines.

I have a bunch of various SBC and they all suck pretty bad for network
tasks. Fine for random server tasks but don't put them in your network
path unless you like artificial bottlenecks.

The Machiattobin and/or Espressobin platforms are probably the best
for network appliance usage. I haven't got one to see if Openbsd works
on them at all tho.
