i wonder if it’s actually possible to install linux on a machine without a CPU

[–] T156@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

These days, the CPU probably runs Linux on itself.

Storage drive control boards are basically small computers in their own right, now.

Linux is a bit heavy for embedded stuff.

Intel's ME for an example, uses Minix.
