The Linux kernel (3.12 and later) appears to have some sort of support
for it, looking at the device tree file it supports the LEDs, eMMC,
WLAN/BT and internal flash. It is probably possible to run Debian
jessie armhf on it. Depending on how it boots, you might be able to
use the recently announced debian-installer beta for jessie. If not
then it should be fairly easy to debootstrap --foreign onto your
storage device and boot up. The initial boot will take longer due to
first-boot setup needed with debootstrap --foreign.
