From the research I just did on it, the type of memory has nothing to do with the OS, and has everything to do with the intended application. SLC is for embedded systems, MLC is for consumer products, and TLC is for lower end consumer products. Since linux works on all of those, I would assume that is works with all 3 kinds of RAM. Here is where I got the info from: http://www.centon.com/flash-products/chiptype
