Well it did realize the KA640 was a CVAX but it misidentified it as a KA650 :-)
If you get the list that would be great, then I could perhaps put together
an Ultrix VAX system!

Well the good
news is that using the 'screwdriver in the drill to the hole
in the bottom' I recovered the tape and attempted to boot it on a 4000/200
with a TK70. It started but the kernel failed to load. I'm guessing Ultrix
2.2 is too early for the KA660 :-)
I'm going to try it with a KA640 (closer to the KA630 in lineage) and see
if it recognizes that. I've yet to find the SPD for Ultrix 2.2 to tell me
what it did support.
I don't think you're going to get anything other than the KA630 to work,
and the list of supported hardware is pretty slim. Unfortuanatly I can't
get to the manuals, but it isn't intended to run on anything newer than the
MicroVAX II I believe.
