Does OS9/68k have any native IP capability?  If so, you might want to
run DW over IP rather than serial.  Otherwise I'd suppose it's "just"
a matter of translating the dw3, dwread and dwwrite modules to 68k.
Bitbanger and fifo/MESS versions are in CVS, but I think Darren wrote
a UART based version that might be more useful to you than either of
those.  Not sure where that is, or if I am recalling correctly.

http://nitros9.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/nitros9/nitros9/

and something like:

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous at nitros9.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nitros9
co -P nitros9

both should work, tested the web access and it's fine.  What means of
browsing the source were you trying that failed?  I'll try to fix if I
can.
