You could get a simple microblaze system in there, but I don't think you 
could get Microblaze-uClinux going on it.

The S3-200 is probably a bit small for the extra supporting peripherals 
required (timers, uarts, interrupt controllers etC), plus the board 
doesn't have enough on-board memory (you want at least 2MB, preferably 4 
or more).

Regards,

John
