What OS and/or running environment support time
sharing on LSI11? Is there multi-user/multi-terminal support?
If you have a fast hard-drive you can run MINI-UNIX [1]:

We had this running circa 1980 with two (or maybe three) terminals and
10MB Pertec fixed+cartridge disk system, LSI-11/03 with 56KB memory.
Before that we ran RT-11 [2] with foreground/background tasks and at
various times MU-BASIC (multi-user BASIC) [3].
