The Wonderful World of Linux 2.6
Joe Pranevich has put the finishing touches on The Wonderful World of Linux 2.6
so it's up-to-date with last night's 2.6.0 release. "There are
several new lines of embedded processors supported by Linux 2.6, including
Hitachi's H8/300 series, the NEC v850 processor, and Motorola's line of
embedded m68k processors. Motorola's offerings are the most familiar to the
average Linux user as they are the guts underneath Palm Pilots starting
with the first (the Palm 1000), up until the Palm III. Other models go by
names such as Dragonball and ColdFire and are included on systems and
evaluation boards manufactured by Motorola, Lineo, Arcturus, and
others. Sadly, support for other, older m68k processors without MMUs (such
as the 68000s used in early Macintoshes) is not yet covered by the new
release but it is highly possible that "hobbyist" projects of the future
will seek to support Linux on these and other antique system."
