I did some consulting work at a client who was using the uCLinux
distribution from Emcraft on a Freescale Cortex-M4 part. It worked very
well. The build was smooth and the boot worked as expected. I I made
changes to Linux to enable the crypto engine on the Freescale part and
enabled DMA on the serial port. Those changes were pulled into their tree.

So I would have to echo Doug's comments that it worked pretty well.

If there is something technically specific that you can post, then we could
provide better suggestions for help.
