Need a linux flight program

I am building a UAV and building a computer control system. I am wanting to use a small linux disro (puppy, damn small) so that i need no drives except sd card reader. I am wondering if anyone knew of a flight control program or something that can be motified to work. The basics are that i am gonna use a 3g cell to communicate and for gps, a small decent mother board an amd phenom II processor, 2X 4g ddr2, and a sdcard reader. NO DRIVES- too much weight. I have tested the prototype and it flies. I know a phone isnt instant but thats ok. it will used to give cooridants and to give commands. I plan to have the computer to control, by usb, a control board but want some input before i start building it. Any ideas or suggestions or help would be appreciated. Would it be possible to modify a flight simulator to work in this situation?

NAME
linux-version - operate on Linux kernel version strings SYNOPSIS
linux-version compare VERSION1 OP VERSION2 linux-version sort [--reverse] [VERSION1 VERSION2 ...] linux-version list [--paths] DESCRIPTION
linux-version operates on Linux kernel version strings as reported by uname -r and used in file and directory names. These version strings do not follow the same rules as Debian package version strings and should not be compared as such or as arbitrary strings. compare VERSION1 OP VERSION2 Compare version strings, where OP is a binary operator. linux-version returns success (zero result) if the specified condition is satisfied, and failure (nonzero result) otherwise. The valid operators are: lt le eq ne ge gt sort [--reverse] [VERSION1 VERSION2 ...] Sort the given version strings and print them in order from lowest to highest. If the --reverse option is used, print them in order from highest to lowest. If no version strings are given as arguments, the version strings will instead be read from standard input, one per line. They may be suffixed by arbitrary text after a space, which will be included in the output. This means that, for example: linux-version list --paths | linux-version sort --reverse will list the installed versions and corresponding paths in order from highest to lowest version. list [--paths] List kernel versions installed in the customary location. If the --paths option, show the corresponding path for each version. AUTHOR
