Hey,
First, we should probably start a separate thread for this, rather than
hijacking Kyle's website thread!  Good work guys, BTW.  The new site
looks nice over here.

Here's the deal with ARM.  There is a great variety of processors and
boards, and they're not all compatible.
This isn't like x86 or x86-64.
I'm pretty sure that an Arch image for the Raspberry Pi won't run on a
MK802.  You'll need a separate image.
For that, you'd have to look at the ArchLinux on ARM project.
Their site is http://archlinuxarm.org.  If they have something that runs
on the MK802, it won't talk out of the box.  Someone in the community
will have to customize it.
If I could get my hands on an MK802 I'd be glad to have a go at it.
