There are all sorts of interesting devices people have tried to get linux going. For example here is how to get Ubuntu linux to boot on an 8-bit AVR ATmega1284p, by emulating ARMv5: http://dmitry.gr/index.php?proj=07.+Linux+on+8bit&r=05.Proje.. http://dmitry.gr/index.php?proj=07.+Linux+on+8bit&r=05.Proje.... Here is linux on a hard drive microcontroller http://spritesmods.com/?art=hddhack&page=1 http://spritesmods.com/?art=hddhack&page=1 There is even a port of linux, uClinux, that doesn't require an mmu. http://www.uclinux.org/ports/ http://www.uclinux.org/ports/

"Here is linux on a hard drive microcontroller http://spritesmods.com/?art=hddhack&page=1 http://spritesmods.com/?art=hddhack&page=1 " No, that isn't Linux on a HDD microtroller. It's bare metal on an HDD MCU sort of fooling the Linux box that is accessing it. True that you can run uCLinux on some MCU devices, but this thread isn't necessarily showing the best one for that. Dancing bears are amusing, but not common or recommended.
