The Renesas RZA1H can run XIP Linux OS. This is running the Linux kernel from Serial Flash. See this link for information http://renesasrulz.com/renesas_forum_home/rz/m/mediagallery/
The GR-PEACH has limited amount of Serial Flash (8MB) and no SDRAM( not needed for XIP Linux).

There is a unique GR-PEACH/RZA-H/M/L RAM and Flash configuration so it depends on the size your binary image of OS and applications. The Current GR-PEACH uses the 10MB RAM on Chip with NO external DDR RAM or options. This will be the memory boundary for your OS/OpenCV/application. There are other Renesas platforms that are used with Linux, OpenCV and BDTi Optical Flows.
I dont know if this is convenient : http://renesasinfo.com/wireless-iot-workshop?pp=1&ls=Email&sfid=70160000000licg&elqTrackId=4303f32e4dd14e8c84579bcab86884bb&elq=871896c575bf41668e72e7756ec49326&elqaid=957&elqat=1&elqCampaignId=393 however it will be held in several locations if there is interest.

I dont think the GR-PEACH can hold an OS. My project also needs opencv, I found a mbed-opencv program :

I combiled it, showing much errors. also I found a project on opencv :
