Any idea how tough it would be to get 4e booting on this? Doesn't come
with a builtin framebuffer, but seems otherwise well-documented...

I'd imagine most of the work would be (as it is for any system we have
architecture support for) bootstrap and then perhaps Ethernet. Probably a
couple of weeks depending on how obscure their loader is, less if they are
using something standard like uboot.
