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
using usb stick. There is no ethernet driver yet too.
So basically board support is in beginning stage.
For test however you can use usb connected devices like maybe
ethernet, hard disk etc.
