I can't answer your question directly (hopefully others here can
speak to it), but I wanted to point out some additional approaches
which I would suggest pursuing in parallel to the community:
Contact the hardware manufacturer and make sure you'll be supported.
For the money you'll be spending, they should be willing to help you
pre-sales. Of course, vendors are not to be trusted pre-sales, but
getting their story is still a good idea.
Check with Canonical (the company behind Ubuntu) for their take. If
needed, I would think a phone consult fee would be easy to arrange,
for a project of this size.
