[TUHS] VAX-11/780 emulation

[Akito Fujita]

Hi

I have a plan to run UNIX/32V using SIMH.

UNIX/32V is required VAX-11/780 
and SIMH support Micro VAX III (?) only.
Is it possible without any modification ?

Does anyone try this ?
Are there more better emulator than SIMH ?
or Should I add the feature of 11/780 emulation into SIHM ?

Thanks

No, I don't think you can run UNIX/32V using SIMH.
You need something that really looks like a VAX-11/780.

Also I have looked for more better emulator than SIMH,
but I've never find anything yet.

Does anyone have a good information about it ?

VAX-11/780 is a unibus VAX.
Micro VAX III / SIMH VAX is a Qbus VAX.

http://world.std.com/~bdc/projects/vaxen/vax-perf.html

SIMH is "Mayfair III" on that page.

I don't know if it is any better since I haven't ever used it, but
supposedly ts10 can emulate a vax.

All,

Yes, latest ts10 versions are at
ftp://ftp.firesword7.net/pub/ts10/develop.  11/780 emulation is not
finished yet because I am figuring out how some memory and unibus
configuration programming works.  I have working Massbus emulation for
11/780 emulation.

Some report on UNIX/32V for VAX-11/780 located at the University of
Tokyo appeared in a Japanese journal for computer architecture in
1981. See the following web page for details. CAVEAT: it contains lots
of Japanese characters.

Yes, I know it.

I want to make sure how different it from BSD.
That is reason why I want to run UNIX/32V.
Perhaps, no one have seen UNIX/32V which is running in Japan.

Also we can run old [34]BSD stuff without modification,
if we have VAX-11/780 emulator.

Akito

I don't know if you got my earlier email it was bounced back earlier today 
from TUHS any way v32 doesn't support virtual memory.
