Subject: offer - OS/2 for the PDP-11

Yes, you read that correctly.
I have in my possession a TK-50 tape for the PDP-11 system which contains none
other than
OS/2 operating system.
Many people have claimed this never existed. But I have the tape!
I had done a directory dump of it and can supply it.
I, and many others on the list would still love to see the directory dump.
It would provide many necessary clues as to whether that tape is
1) a hitherto unknown (and denied by many involved and/or knowledgeable)
port of OS/2(written in VALTREP :-)
2) a backup being done on a PDP tape of PC operating system files
3) a backup of miscellaneous files from an OS/2 PC
4) some other OS with unfortunate similarity of names
?
