most probably you won't need porting the kernel cause ARM is already supported by the linux kernel
you can check the /src/arch/arm subtree for the supported processors
if you wanna run MMU-less ARM Microcontrollers you've to consider using uclinux "www.uclinux.org" which is a port of linux kernel to many MMUless Mc and ARM is well supported also
hope this helps

Hi All,
How does one setup a kernel development environment? (Cheapest,of course). I
was looking at a few ARM9 SBCs and I could not figure out what tools I'll be
needing to get the kernel ported or for device driver development. When I
google, I find people mentioning JTAG. Will a cheap JTAG interface be
sufficient to debug/FLASH an SBC? Will GCC/GDB work with them? I guess they
do but I need to get it confirmed from people who already use it.
Basically I need to learn kernel porting. I just want to know how you people
are doing it. I don't want buy something and later find out it cannot be
used.
