We are actively evaluating embedded linux for our PPC-850-based product which currently runs under a commercial RTOS. What I have gathered from lurking here is that embedded linux operates like PC linux, and that is not the model we are looking for. Running from ROM makes sense to us, too. I think we are at the same stage of development as Kent, and would be most interested in learning what work is being done in this area, and, conversely, what amount of work we will be undertaking ourselves...
