As with most things, its just not officially supported. BYOK (Bring Your Own Kernel) & UBoot and it should work.

if you are lucky enough that your board is not bricked by default (2 out of 2 in my unfortunate case), the sun7i version should do.

However, do not use the boot loader / kernel used with Cubieboard 2 because Marsboard and Cubieboard have differences specially with RAM and clock and you could easily burn it.

Good luck
