Hey Jon, I am also planning to deploy puppet on ARM and am glad to see you tried and may be you fixed issues with it. I dropped a mail to Puppetlabs, seeking information as to what is their roadmap for supporting puppet on ARMv7 and later releases and puppetlabs replied back saying currently they don't have any plans.
Can you please tell which ARM platform you made it working ?
