I managed to get the poulsbo 'stuff' running on my Dell Mini 10 (running Lucid) last night. It was a lot of faff as the system had some dregs of stuff from getting the GMA500 chip working properly in Karmic. I would say it is not something for the faint hearted (about 3 hours in total it took me) with a good proportion of time spent on a working laptop with google and a terminal with ssh! I can confirm that I have it working now though.
