An
OS qualifies
if it was general purpose, not a dedicated OS. CP/M, Apple DOS,
etc qualify, ROM'ed things like vxWorks does not. Forth is a special
Are you sayiong an OS is not general-purpose if it's in ROM? In other
words Acorn MOS doesn't count? Strange criterion.

A starting point is:
Z80:
CP/M (and variants: MP/M, etc)
TRS-DOS
LDOS, MultiDOS, DOS+, etc (various TRS-80 'improved' OSes)
XtalDOS (Tatung Einstein CP/M-a-like)
CP/N (?)
6502:
Apple DOS
Commodore DOS (not sure of the name)
Acorn MOS
6800:
Flex
6809:
Flex-09
OS9
Color TRS-DOS
1802:
RCA COSMAC development system
32016:
PANOS/Pandora
Whatever the Unix varient on the Whitechapel MG1 is called ;-)
Z8000:
ZEUS (Zilog Enhanced Unix System)
