well I have been interested in the same thing for a while.

I bought a Picolo card from Euresys. It has a linux drivers and software (i
haven't done much with it) but a lot more
Windows software (spent most of my time on this).

It is good but it is about $500 australian.

By the way what is a good embedded small Linux distribution that can fit on
a 128MB CF that I can write software for in Red Hat 8 and run it
embedded?
