It runs on a PSP.

You can also run the basic linux kernel on a PSP.

I have tried putting Linux on my DS and it didn't do much, I tried putting Linux on my PSP and it was still just a console and file mover.

I might try that out, but i'm thinking it's going to be a crippled hard-to-work deal simmiliar to the Linux/PSP deal.

yeah I dont see much point in putting win95 or linux on your psp  ::)

It depends on the capabilities.  I would love to have something that small that could plug into an ethernet jack (or, better yet, 2 ethernet jacks,  set up as a bridge) and run tcpdump, then give me the results later.  That would be extremely handy for diagnosing network problems or even stealing information :P

You might be able to adapt PicoTux if you really want a smart Ethernet jack. ;)

What hardware/software do you need to do a DS?  *stares at his DS and grins*

The rockability of an operating system can hardly be judged by its ability to be run on the Playstation Portable.
