Then why do you need to run firefox on the rpi's?  I'd use Firefox on my
desktop and if I need to download files to one of the other machines,
I'd copy those files via `scp` or `sshfs` or even NFS (NFS
authentication is a PITA in my experience, but if you can use
a dedicated local network where you all machines can somewhat trust
each other, NFS can be a good option).

I was not super happy with some aspects (e.g. the fact that I can't get
the source code for some of the firmware, including the Petitboot that's
included, nor is there any way to change that firmware's config (e.g. to
make Petitboot use the serial console rather than the HDMI output)), but
in practice it works well and the hardware is fully supported by the
vanilla Linux kernel.
