I'm running Arch on my router which uses this board[1]. That's it though. 
There's nothing really special about the box apart from the slow cpu (well the 
whole thing draws 7W under load so that's to be expected), the small form 
factor and the serial connection instead of a vga port.

Works just fine and does what you'd expect it to do.

Thank you so much! 

I've been looking at that, I was more or less just curious as to whether
or not people know of prior uses of Arch Linux for embedded projects
that use x86 motherboards. This is really just something I'd be
interested in looking at.

Archlinux officially provides packages for i386/x86_64 architecture. You want 
to 
use embedded systems, so most probably, ARM and related architectures, wherein 
it is not actually an option. 

But you might want to look here:
