I see an "arch/m68knommu" in the Linux 2.6 kernel sources, and I think that's been merged from the uClinux project. http://www.uclinux.org/ Three or four years ago I built a version of Penguin booter that ran on MMU-less Macs and hacked together a 2.0.38 kernel for my Mac SE with an ethernet card. The kernel never made it very far, but it did start booting. I still have the modified Penguin source and kernel source, though. Dave
