I have one, and I actually ordered a few more.  First thing you need is
U-Boot.  There is a patchset on the u-boot mailing lists.

The DTB part of that u-boot is good enough to boot, but I don't see the
USB show up.  I think for that we'd need to find another DTB.

Also, if you look through the lists, there's someone who already made it
work before.

The price itself isn't as nice anymore once you order it with a few
things, like case and... shipping costs.

or the NanoPi R2S can run OpenBSD? Anyone tried?

22$ ! cheap, low power usage and two gbit ethernet! It would be great if
they wouldn't officially advert it with some custom OS :(

With metal case to keep it from overheating (+$6.00), USB power supply 
and shipping to USA/Montana (DHL 10-17 days/$27, SF-Express 5-14 
days/$42)  for a total of $59.99/$74.99 this no longer falls into the 
category of "let's get one just to see!"


Just saying.

Hello,

trying to find a low powered single board computer with two gigabit LAN for
router purposes.

already checked the https://www.openbsd.org/arm64.html page, but google
doesn't brings up any arm64 based SBC with 2 gigabit network ports that
OpenBSD supports.

or the NanoPi R2S can run OpenBSD? Anyone tried?
