I've prepared two tar archives containing a minimal 64bit ARM root filesystem for Debian Jessie (login: debian, passwd: 111111) and Ubuntu Trusty (login ubuntu, passwd: 111111). You can find the scripts for creating the root filesystems and some additional information about the tar archives here. Once the kernel image / modules and the boot loader are available for the PINE64, I'll try to build a complete image.

I've updated the information about creating your own bootable Linux uSD card, since kernel & boot loader are available. Debian is first, Arch and Ubuntu are going to follow.
++
* The PINE64 boots up nicely
* The 3.10 kernel doesn't seem to fry the SoC
* You may run Docker
* You may use the USB ports
* You may start to port your own project to the PINE64
--
* The kernel is as old as the hills, and not in good shape (you should expect compile errors and broken dependency configuration if you start to tweak it)
* The kernel panics during reboot/shutdown FIXED
* The internal ethernet device has a speed issue, you shouldn't expect to get more the several kbit/s over the wire. (best is to connect an USB to ethernet device)
* WiFi isn't working at this time FIXED: modprobe 8723bs
* You cannot login via serial console, although /dev/ttyS0 is working FIXED: Was missing CONFIG_FHANDLE
* Haven't tested video
* May more to be found
I've added the Ubuntu Trusty rootfs + kernel for the PINE64
