I wouldn't bet my farm on that without a bunch of research and cross checking because embedded linux is really common. Consider manufacturers are producing very large numbers of embedded ARM micro's with external memory interfaces. I think the majority of those are running linux.
- Delk 6y agoThat's a fair point. I was referring to "most" distros in terms of the plain number of distros with reasonable mainstream visibility (and therefore possibly the majority focus from mainstream userspace developers), as a kind of a generous argument. The number of embedded Linux deployments is undoubtedly huge.
