Depends on which Arduino you are talking about. The Uno
and most other common variants are based on a fairly puny
(by today's standards) Atmel 8-bit processor. But there
are other more powerful Arduino boards (like the Due)
based on ARM Cortex-M processors. There are ports of Linux
to some Cortex-M variants, but I don't know if these happen
to be the same as those used in the Arduino Due...
But anyway, if you need something powerful enough to run Linux,
you might also consider other boards like the Raspberry Pi or
the BeagleBone Black. The latter in particular is a pretty
powerful device and has tons of GPIO pins.
Best regards,
Dario Teixeira
