Hi Richard:

I am wondering if anyone had ported a Linux for Plasma?

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.

A port of uclinux for MIPS can be found here: http://www.xiptech.com/uclinuxformips.htm
