I was looking at Mini-UNIX for the PDP-11 and that's something similar to
what I'm looking for, but I wondered what other alternatives there were. Any
architecture will do, but I'm particularly interested in minicomputer
architectures for this project (DG, DEC, IBM, etc., would all be appropriate).
Thanks for humouring my odd request ^^
Actually it's an interesting question...
RSX-11C on the PDP-11 comes to mind, I think that's the right RSX
version, but it might require more RAM like 32k. Shoot, even Lunix
on the C-64 requires 64k.
Then again, maybe I'm thinking to new... What about TSS/8 on the PDP-8?
