Aha! Found it! I'd been looking for this. Recommended once by YouTube, and then lost.

… on GEM
… on DR-DOS
… on an 8086 PC emulator
… on a Raspberry Pi
… running as a second processor using a BBC Master 128 for I/O.

Of the many people who have run #Elite on a Pi second processor, none seem to have thought about switching to the PDP-11 emulation and trying to run some early Unix. But seeing DR-DOS on a BBC Master is pretty wild.
