I think roots of Go in Limbo programming language, running on Dis VM on Inferno OS. Inferno itself is based on Plan 9 ideas. Essentially Go just Limbo, but native instead of VM and with more conventional syntax. Inferno also had built-in distribution and hot code loading: I.e. you could load module from remote location and run a function locally or you could execute function remotely as RPC. Erlang/OTP never had this level of integration as Inferno, but now we have some efforts to running Erlang on bar metal, I.e. Erlang-on-Xen.
