Trust me it's faster! I've run both. The software needs to run
at 19.2k or faster to be realistic.

What is the "modern way" to get
software into the PDP11?
I use a ZIP drive and a Qbus MSCP disc controller.
A software-only solution (though much slower) is to use the
TU58 simulation software that is around

Sounds interesting. But where to get that MSCP controller??

... But with it I would be able to boot my machine. At the moment I have
NOTHING to boot up my system, copy disks, transfer data from pc etc...
But I have a lot (perhaps more than 100) of these 8" disks.
Can I boot RT11 or RSX11 from floppy???
Regards,
Philipp :-)

Here's a jumping off point to the TU58 simulator:

Sellam, which of the Linux emulators are you using, and with what
Linux kernel version?

But I imagine the Linux version will work on any standard Linux install
with properly configured serial ports.
