And that's why you're probably not working on embedded. Minimal environments with almost zero footprint is a must in almost all cases. If you're rolling a custom board, you simply have to go custom, which is where OpenBSD will fall short on you. Check Variscite's or Toradex websites and see if you find any BSD in there.
