Those server software will most probably work, although I didn't test yet.

There is no SATA driver yet as well as SD and NAND drivers.
usb works (one of 3 usb interfaces), so I only tested mounting rootfs

So basically board support is in beginning stage.
For test however you can use usb connected devices like maybe
ethernet, hard disk etc.
