I can make a vote against x86 in a virtualized environment like ProxMox. Setup is just way harder than it needs to be and there are a lot of gotchas.
I’m looking as well. Although now it seems like I should just buy this BPi when it is available. I would like to go back to ARM on my router… just nothing Broadcom!
- alibert 3y agoWhat is harder? I have a setup just like that. Create VM, use open wrt image as disk Vm, configure some passthrough for the nics and press start? Updates are as easy as other device (press button on web interface or use openwrt cli) IMO, owrt runs best on x86 (it’s your usual Linux kernel after all) and you get the best support and performance. You also avoid a lot of all the bugs related to embedded development with custom SoC, internal switch, vlans, flash layout, possibility of brick, bootloader stuff, etc.
