The "normal" boot program used by VTserver is (I think) the BSD 2.9

which makes it not very useful for use on small 11's

VTserver is really amazingly great, but you may
not have enough ram and
booting RT or XXDP from a slu will give you better diagnostics to assess
your RK05,etc
How much RAM does VTserver require? Older versions of RT-11 (those
contemporary with the 11/10) are usable at aroun 8KW, IIRC. Of course
the full 28KW is nice, especially if you want to run large apps like
ADVENT, but the CUSPS should all run with minimal RAM.
