One reason I see is that Linux requires much less system resources than OS X and performs better on some older machines. I use OS X now, but played around with YDL and it worked faster compared with Jaguar.
That's a perfectly acceptable answer if you're build a server, but a Pismo is not a performer to begin with. In my experience with Linux, which consisted of writing an audio driver and DSP code for an audio card for an embedded application, I found very little I wanted to do with Linux from a personal computing standpoint.
