Yes, I installed LITMUS-RT on Freescale IMX6 Sabre development board. I
used 2015.1 release. You can also install LITMUS-RT patches on Freescale's
BSP Linux.

I'm not sure about the minimum requirements, but I think if you can run
Linux on a machine you can run LITMUS-RT, too.

ARM archtectures are supported.

I turn off power management and frequency scaling features because it is
recommended to disable those features.
