I haven't used RouterOS and have no experience on it.  But yeah, this is
a job for which I *like* OpenBSD.  I was soured on FreeBSD the first
time I tried to install FreeBSD/Sparc on a U2, with no other machine
available I could serial-console, asked for help on usable console
settings for the Sun framebuffer, and was told more or less in so many
words, "We don't support Sun framebuffers [this on the *Sparc* port,
remember], and have no intention of ever doing so, so piss off."
