For what it's worth, the Sub 68K (mostly*) does not share memory with the main 68K. This makes SMP impossible, but on the bright side there's no contention. Sadly, there's also no way for the faster Sub 68K to directly access the cartridge so I think it would be difficult to run Linux on that CPU at all unless you can cram everything into 768KB (program RAM + word RAM)

* Word RAM can be swapped between the 68Ks, or can be operated in a split mode where each 68K gets half. There's no mechanism to allow both 68K's to access the same bank simultaneously though.
