Plan 9 or Inferno might also be options. Plan 9 comes in different variants, the "classic" one (with a Raspberry Pi port by Richard Miller) or 9front, an Inferno porting tutorial can be found at https://github.com/yshurik/inferno-rpi Finally, bare-metal Smalltalk is available in my crosstalk system: https://github.com/michaelengel/crosstalk), Pharo (https://pharo.org) or InterLisp (<a href="https://github.com/Interlisp/medley">https://github.com/Interlisp/medley</a>). Or - a crazy idea - build an emacs-only machine. That would be fun! :).
