Ah, OK - I'm so used to people putting Linux on the embedded processor in their rice cooker that, not clearly understanding what was being talked about, I assumed it was wanted to run Linux on the uC. Still, I guess I don't really see the value in making the QSIC, or some things plugged into it, 'available' from some other machine. AFAIAC, it's only a peripheral to the PDP-11. Ah, we'll put you in charge of implementing the MSCP controller emulations, then! :-) (Those are something I oersonally have no interest in, but I can see a viable case for doing them.) Noel
