Well, there is a Linux port for MMU-less devices (http://www.uclinux.org/) that is quite usable, but of course the lack of MMU brings some limitations similar to eCos. I wanted to say that an application where the virtual memory is _needed_ (for example because you are allocating memory in a way that the fragmentation would create problems and can't cange that) needs a full-blown Linux. Whether the device itself has or does not have a MMU is not so important here. A MMU-less device can run uClinux and a device with a MMU can run eCos.
