What if the user wants to run a different OS besides Linux? Seems like the only option is Linux? No Plan9, BSD, etc.?

Anything that boots on a Raspberry Pi should also work on the Revolution Pi, e.g. FreeBSD:

It's just that we haven't tested it yet ourselves. Minimal adjustments may be necessary due to a few small differences between the standard RasPi and the RasPi Compute Module used in the Revolution Pi, e.g. the Compute Module lacks the on-board BCM43438 WiFi that's present on the standard RasPi 3.
