sudo bmsmaster --restart --force anyone?
I have the same opinion, no need of this king of board and operating system for the master board, which need to startup instantaneously when ignition turn ON. I use embedded linux on a lot of project, but I don't see the advantage here.

This is just my opinion, of course - what do you think?
Anyway, at my opinion there is absolutely no need to choose the microcontroller or other component now, the important step is to validate the general architecture of the board, to decide which functions the board must implement or not. The microcontroller choice is almost the last step

I need to add on my general architecture image that the digital outputs must have the PWM capability.
