There are thousands of operating systems, and probably hundreds that will not run on a "PC." A comprehensive list is impractical, if not impossible, to create. Here are a few examples:

  • AmigaOS
  • MorphOS
  • Classic Mac OS (System 1 to Mac OS 9)
  • GEOS (except for BreadBox Ensemble)
  • LUnix
  • Contiki
  • GeckOS
  • PalmOS
  • MiNT
  • EmuTOS
  • Atari DOS
  • AIX
  • Tru64
  • RISC OS
  • SunOS
  • Ultrix
  • HP-UX
  • Amiga Unix
  • CatOS
  • Human68k
  • FLEX
