LINUX for Architecture

Are there Linux distros for computers of Apple, Atari, Commodore 64
Sinclair, Sun, architectures?

Are these distros free under GPL license or under some other license?

What are the names for different distros for different architectures...

Perhaps for Sun, but Apple, Commodore 64 I doubt it because those are 6502 computers with 8/16 bit registers. There is for Amiga's but I don't know about Atari's, if you mean the 68000 computers and not the consoles. You'll probably be able to google for more details.
