I couldn't find much about Debian Jessie here. I've been using it for sometime on my Intel/AMD machines, because of various problems on Wheezy, like hardware drivers being out-of-date etc etc etc ... Jessie is supposed to be the next release of Debian, and is in my experience fairly stable these days.
I've managed to get Jessie booting using bodhi's latest rootfs, kernel 3.17.0 on GoFlexNet. He has full instructions on how to install here -

1. Build a new Debian installation as per bodhi's instructions for Debian-3.17.0-kirkwood-tld-1
2. After you've built, edit your /etc/network/interfaces, /etc/resolv.conf, /etc/hostname, /etc/fstab if you need to. THEN reboot and ensure installation is booting properly.
3. If you're booting fine into bodhi's Wheezy/3.17.0 THEN Update your '/etc/apt/sources.list' file - change wheezy to jessie. Yours should be changed to YOUR local apt servers, mine is :
deb http://ftp2.jp.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp2.jp.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
3. Run 'apt-get dist-upgrade'. Mine took a while to run maybe 30 minutes - 1 hour.
4. Regenerate the intramfs file (also from bodhi's instruction for the kernel) :
cd /boot
cp uInitrd uInitrd.bak
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x00000000 -e 0x00000000 -n initramfs-3.17.0-kirkwood-tld-1 -d /boot/initrd.img-3.17.0-kirkwood-tld-1 /boot/uInitrd
5. Reboot
sync
shutdown -r 0
You can check the disro your running with :
uname -a
cat /etc/*-release
I haven't done extensive testing (yet) so I can't guarantee that it'll run flawlessly. Obviously put any feedback here for issues - might help others. Even better post the solution you found too :) ...
CAVEAT - bodhi's rootfs installation has a minimal package set installed - so you could run into issues if you're upgrading a bunch of packages you've installed at the same time as upgrading to Jessie. IF IN DOUBT, TAKE A BACKUP FIRST !
