Well, "running Linux" is very different from "running a full blown Linux". For example, I have a kernel, initrd, dhcp, shell, ability to mount file systems, kexec, ssh, and a boot loader in about 1.28MiB that I can flash onto a platform flash. BTW, that userland is provided by busybox, kexec-tools, and Dropbear-SSH. -- David N.
