I just today installed CentOS Userland on a Raspberry Pi 2B and have started using it as a firewall. It is fast and really works perfectly for this use case. I have an HDMI to VGA adapter and a PS/2 mouse/keyboard to USB adapter to connect to my 16 port KVM switch. I use a Gb Ethernet dongle for the internal network and connect the on-board NIC to the external network.
I have a few more tools I want to install, because the CentOS ARM image is very minimal. And not everything I would like is available on the repo, but enough to make this very workable for me.

I hope this helps.

With the release of the Rasberry Pi 3.x, I think we have a platform I could jump on board with. Performance has just been lacking until now!
But I really don't want to jump the "RH ship" - I'd rather stick with an environment I am comfortable in.
Can anybody comment here on the best way to run RHEL/Fedora/CentOS on a RasPi, or if there's even a useful port?
join the arm-dev list ( https://lists.centos.org ) CentOS has a great story across the entire ARMv7 and v8 platform, with every major vendor in the ARM 64bit platform working with us. We say the rpi3 release this morning and are going to work on a bringup to match our rpi2 images. However, we will also be doing a 64bit image, based on CentOS Linux 7/aarch64 release
