I bought the board and thought about it too. But why would you do it ?
It runs a complete 2.6 linux out of the box with full network support
and everything that comes with it. It has support for the multiple NIC, MMC, USB
without having to re-invent it. Porting applications (posix) to it is "almost trivial".
What would be the benefit of running NutOS? Is the license a problem?
