Yes, there's Linux for it.  However, this is the operating system that IBM 
developed for the NetStation 1000 and is provided as part of the IBM Network 
Station Manager V2, which mean that it is probably proprietary.  The sources 
are not included in the package, just the binaries required to run the 
device.  This means no compilers, sources, apps, games, etc.

Attached is the output of the dmesg command.
