actualy it is called uCLinux and is included with linux. If anyone has ported it on Plasma please post here...

The Plasma CPU does not include a Memory Management Unit (MMU) which Linux requires. I have been told that a smaller version of Linux exists (cLinux?) that does not require a MMU. The Plasma CPU is really targeted at embedded SOC applications.
