It's hard to say whether a board will work without testing. You could
try searching the 9front sysinfo lists, but it's possible this board has
never been used. If it does work, I'm sure the 9front project would
enjoy a copy of the sysinfo for it :)

I've done all my Plan 9 hosting through Vultr, but looking at their
locations the farthest north they offer in Europe is Amsterdam.

Good luck!

Cheers,
Sean
