So have I

ARMedslack is an active project, also in 13.37 RC state. And it is an official port of Slackware.
It comes with instructions how to install it on the SheevaPlug.

The SheevaPlug is probably the easiest device out there with regards to shoving ArmedSlack on it. :-)

I've had it running, on USB stick and SD card, but then something happened (most likely PEBCAK), and now I can't get the ARMedslack booting, or restore the plug to its original state via the sheevaplug-installer. Some of the gory details are in my LQ blog, starting here and subsequent entries. I haven't given up on it yet, though.
