Thought I would expand on blastbob's (hope he doesn't mind) wonderful tut for how to setup a FTC p2pool on Ubuntu 12.04 for my memory.
Plus we could always use some more p2pool miners.
I've also added a method of running it in a VirtualBox on Windows machine.
Download Virtual Box software -
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/DownloadsDownload a premade Ubuntu 12.04 Virtual Box -
http://virtualboxes.org/images/ubuntu/Look for 15.Ubuntu Linux 12.04 x86
Size (compressed/uncompressed): 769 MB/3.2 GB
Link: http://sourceforge.net/projects/virtualboximage/files/Ubuntu%20Linux/12.04/ubuntu_12.04-x86.7z
(if you have problems with using a premade VDI, make your own using an Ubuntu ISO http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/virtualbox)
e.g C:\Program Files\Oracle\VMs\ubuntu_12.04
Navigate where you just extracted Ubuntu and double click on ubuntu_12.04.vbox or the .vdi
When the VM gets to the Ubuntu splash screen, hover over the network adapter icon in the bottom right of the VM window and
right click it and select 'Network Adapters' and change 'Attached to' to Bridged Mode.
Also change 'Promiscuous Mode' to Allow all and reboot the VM to get a local IP address you can forward ports to.

You can use screen -r to open up the p2pool console, or you can tail -f ~/p2pool-fc/data/feathercoin/log
--w port (The port for the stat web interface and also the port where miners connect)
-f number ( Fee you will get for running the pool, in percent)
Some nice commands:tail -f ~/p2poolf-fc/data/feathercoin/log | grep BLOCK
