I don’t think the Spartan 6 can, it’s an fpga with no arm, the zynq can, there’s a lot of other arm chips that I assume can run some type of Linux, but the blurry ones are throwing me off
Edit, top left is a 286 CPU, and the Intel one has an earlier date, so they MIGHT be able to runwalk it, it’ll be not good
Not only could mainline Linux never run on a 286, it also definitely doesn’t count as an “SoC” to begin with. It needed a separate co-processor just to do floating-point math, let alone to manage all the I/O that a SoC does on-die.

You guys are the best. I reply in what I think is a bit nerdy way, and I’m outdone.
