BeagleBone is also OSHW.  FreedomBox image for BeagleBone is using the
latest Sid kernel.  Most of the FreedomBox functions are working
although I don't know if all of the hardware components are working.

I just bought a Radxa Rock with the hope for building FB images for it
and using it as my production FB setup.  It does seems to have the
needed hardware working in the mainline kernel[1].
