Hi,
What's the best way of installing UNIX on my PDP11/83?
What I have:
PDP11/83, RD52, a QIC tape streamer doing some sort of TS11 emulation.

A MicroVAX II with a TK50 streamer and NetBSD installed. DEQNA ethernet.
And I have a spare DEQNA laying about.

What I was thinking of doing is writing the distribution to TK50 on the
MVII, move the TK50 streamer to the PDP and go from there. 

Is the RD52 big enough to contain a complete system?

What UNIX versions will work on my PDP? I was thinking of installing
2.11BSD.


Thanks for any input!
