Right now I thinking I'll try to use a 12531C/D

has what I think was/is a basic rom set with (I'm guessing) stub loaders
for a disk drive (washing machine size) and tape drive, I'll need to do
more research to see if the I/O boards for these drives would be a good
starting point to connect the USB drive emulator or just try another serial
card and interface with it. (and a bootloader to load HP IPL/OS).
On my 2109E (will work with a 2113E) I use a 12966A (BACI) for the
system console. I've used it with both physical terminals (2645A and
2745A), and the QCTerm emulator:

I built my 2109E up so it can run RTE-6/VM.
