It mostly depends wether you want 32 or 64 bits environment. The debian installer and kernels don't work on the js20, but you can have a working debian 32 bits userland with a custom kernel on a js20 (even a 64 bits kernel). The problem right now is, I _THINK_, that debian has no clue about biarch setups (for mixes 32/64 bits environment) Ben.
