No, not at all. I do not think the word Linux is even mentioned on the 
CD. First of all, what you get on the CD is exactly what it says on 
the tin: A copy of RISC OS as a ROM image plus boot sequence. There 
are instructions for RedSquirrel and RPCEmu (Windows) but there is no 
emulator software on the CD nor are there any instructions for RPCEmu 
for Linux. Even with such instructions present it would be far from a 
completely packaged solution comparable to the Spoon release.
