I'm looking for the answer to this question too.  Besides the
Sheevaplug, I have a similar ARM gadget that I was planning to enhance
by running Plan 9 on it.

But before I go there, the Feroceon seems to me to be the same device
as the Sheeva's, so you have an advantage there, you may be able to
shoehorn the existing "plug" stuff into it without much effort.

The ARM world is considerably more complicated, what with dozens of
subspecies in existence and 600-page manuals to describe how they
work.  Personally, I'd be very interested in setting up a Plan 9/ARM
Google group in which to discuss what may turn out to be a busy issue.

There are many problems I'd like to discuss with similarly minded
people and one may want to include the growing Raspberry PI community
in such discussions.

If anyone is interested, but does not want to use 9fans for this, feel
free to mail me at my gmail address (lucio.d...@gmail.com) with ideas.
