Currently, I'm also facing almost the same problem as you. Meanwhile, I'm using Montavista Embedded Linux running on ARM Integrator board with ARM920T core.

Right now, all I can say is that, commerical embedded linux is board specific. And documentaion has always been a problem for me.

Thus, I would suggest you start learning the basic linux OS and then proceed to programming in linux environment.

Some of the websites is pretty good. Try www.linuxdevices.com

QNX

Hi,
you can also try QNX. It is a linux like embedded OS but it has many development tools too and supports SH4. Unfortunately it is not totally free but you can download a free version for test.
