Have you talked to Microware? http://www.microware.com/

They are in the process of porting OS/9 to the RaspberryPi and Beaglebone.

OS-9 was originally implemented on a 6809 and was designed from the
ground up as a real-time OS rather than a general purpose, multi user
one, which was how I used it. I ran the 68000 port for several years as
my main computer. This was on a 68020 system, where it did everything I
needed for several years (until the hardware collapsed) and I was
pleasantly surprised by its performance and the lack of bugs in both OS
and compilers/utilities.

The only thing that moved me off it and onto Linux was the death of its
hardware.
