9front on pinephone is actually a project I'm interested in. I checked 
out some details:

The pinephone boot loader can boot from ext4 partition, so it seems 
possible. We'd have to use some ext4 filesystem (eg the one made by 
sigrid) and add it to the boot filesystem.

With a bit of luck (and proper arm compatibility) we can then get a 
9front pinephone booting, maybe even with some screen. I expect many 
things to not work (networking, touchscreen, WAN and lots of other phone 
hardware stuff), but if we get the base system running and some 
networking we already have something usable.

The most complex task is designing a proper plan 9-worthy touchscreen 
interface and developing apps for that.
