Looking for How To for New PPC Board

My group is developing a PCI-based board containing a PPC750 and some
special hardware.  We are considering alternative operating systems for the
PPC 750 and would like to determine if Linux is a viable alternative.  I am
looking for reference material or assistance in figuring this out.  The
board we are developing will have a PPC 750, an MPC 106 PCI bus
interface/memory controller, a small flash, and an FPGA with UART, Timers,
and Interrupt controllers.  The board does not contain a network interface,
peripheral interfaces, or a display interface.  The  minimal operational
model is that the board can be "networked" to from the host PC.

It is possible to use/modify Linux to run in such an environment?

Please send you comments to me directly since I am not a regular reader of
this mailing list.

Thanks in advance.
