For reference, they're looking at replacing PowerMAX with Linux in the vxWorks suite.. They're calling it RedHawk Linunx. See the article from Steve Brosky (my former manager) over here at :

Download the full pdf if you're interested.. All of their systems are "Hawk" systems.. PowerHawk, NightHawk, MediaHawk.. This is a play on the RedHat name because it's based on RedHat, so they call it RedHawk.
What's cool about this is that even though I quit there for mental health reasons, if I decided to become an active contributor for linux, I could sort of become a volunteer employee. (I'm still not sure how much of my time I want to spend in kernel work. I'm also learning OpenGL, and orderred a book on Brain Theory and Neural Netowrks which will probably occupy a good chunk of my time in the coming months. All of these require different types of thinking and work on the computer, so I may not waste much time in the kernel "reinventing the wheel" as it were.)
