@bytex64 @nina_kali_nina There was an effort in the early 2000s to produce a free BTRON implementation independent of Panasonic and PMC, known at various points as B-free, BTRON386, and EOTA, although this only ever produced what amounts to a Unix with an ITRON microkernel and a weird Forth-like shell; they never got around to actually implementing the BTRON subsystem for it (this will of course be in my OS museum VM as well)

Here's the site for EOTA with source and boot images for the last version: https://www.rbt.his.u-fukui.ac.jp/~naniwa/comp/OS/
As for CTRON, the TRON variant for servers and networking equipment that seems to be even more obscure than BTRON, I'm not sure how many implementations there were. Fujitsu made a fault-tolerant server based on the TRON VLSI CPU, running a CTRON-based OS, but I'm not sure if there were ever any other implementations: http://tronweb.super-nova.co.jp/suresys2000.html
