I understand that a number of camera manufacturers have their own embeded Linux already. Like for more than 10 years. That also explains why I don't remember which -- too long ago. Even my not-smart UltraHD TV has Linux in it. When they embed Linux, Japanese companies tend to release the source code. Usually not in a way that you can actually build and replace the firmware, but at least it is released. I strongly suspect that the only reason Magic Lantern works is because the camera already comes with Linux. If you read blurbs, ML doesn't replace the existing firmware, it supplements it. But I haven't taken the time to check.
