of course linux can be packaged as a small-footprint real-time

operating system.
it has been that way from the very beginning.
distro's came second to the own-rolled.  never forget that!  distro's

are not supposed to be embedded, or they wouldn't be distro's: they'd

be "some device X, being used".
the hardware wrapping embedded linux (or any similar kernel) *is* the distro.
