- Atari Jaguar was Atari Corporation's final console, failing to compete in the early '90s market.
- Linux has been ported to the Jaguar using its 68000 processor with a -nommu kernel and custom hackery.
- The port includes a BusyBox userspace and a graphics driver, allowing an on-screen console.
- This follows a trend of Linux ports to '90s consoles like the Sega MegaDrive and Nintendo 64.
