My original intent was limited to OSs that were operable on PCs.  If 
there is OS/9 for PC then by all means but I'd suspect comparison would 
be to unix/linux rather than Dos/win.

While I'd not mind seeing that I have no real 6809 hardware other than
a COCO-II that is sans case.  Found it on the side of the road with smashed
case but fully intact and operable.  

While 1+ing the question we can add 8bit multitasking for Z80 other than 
MP/M to look at.
