This is the only one I've seen. RT was running under Mach, BSD 4.3, and AIX.
There is no NetBSD port in progress. Putting the bits together to make
it run under netbsd would be a fun exercise, but not a very useful one,
since I don't think that there are a lot of those machines around. You
cannot use the BSD RT code, but I think you can use the Mach code to
start. A major problem would be the compiler... I don't think that the
gcc people have kept the rt code up-to-date. Last time when I used the
gcc was in 1992, and at that time it was buggy... Even the green-hills
compiler was buggy...

Your best bet is to find the mach or the bsd4.4 stuff.
