The STM32MP1 series is targeted for Linux. This is an MPU. Plenty of boards to choose from:

The STM32F/G/Lxxx series (MCUs) aren't really meant to run Linux.

While it is possible to run a severely mutilated variant of Linux on higher end MCUs in the STM32F4/F7/H7 series, there is not much point in it. Go for the STM32MP1.
