Many more, Im sure.
Some you just load up a new image and other you need to double the flash on
to make more useful. Some require a RS232 level shifter too.

You don't need an MMU or VMU to run uclinux.

You can run uclinux on a $3 H8/300. The $3 only includes 128KB
of flash and 32KB of RAM, so you'll probably have to add some
external memory.

With a $3 CPU and $10 of memory, you could almost do a board
for $20 that would run Linux with a couple serial ports and
some port pints for I/O.
Of course if you want Ethernet or a video controller or PCI bus
or IDE controller or stuff like that, the price starts to go
up...

I really have no idea what this means. And since I can't install linux on
it, I'm gonna go back to surfing pr0n.

Most processors that can run an operating system like uclinix (with a
MMU or Virtual MU) cost around $10, so finding a board for $20 would be
a dream come true.
Flash and RAM needed would be $5 cost on their own.
I'm not sure of your volume, but $20 is "low balling it"

Most such requests would include a description of I/O, storage
(flash?), memory needs.

Hallo
I'm looking for a cheap sbc available in quantity for an embedded project.
I'm looking for something able to run at least uclinux or ecos.
I had a look but i did not find anything far from $99.
I'dlike something around 20 max 30$, around 100$ I already have boards able
to run an embedded bsd system, but it is too expensive for the current
project.
Any idea?
Thx in advance.
