Fritz,
I have been wrestling with PDP11GUI and my 11/40....I have not had trouble
with the program, but I am weak on interpreting results of the tests.  I
have finally made progress, but I would be interested if you posted results
of your testing using the M9301 and the PDPGUI.  I have not yet been able
to boot my system with an RL02.
