Android
This is versatile and
ergonomic and has a
large market to offer
This is unsuitable for
embedded boards'
customization
Debian
This offers rich apps
and is documented
and open source
The provided version
is more desktop- or
server-oriented
TI Linux EZSDK
This is vastly
documented, good
for exploration

and designed for
embedded apps
This is not for
