Are you sure it was ever ported to PA-RISC?  As far as I am aware, PA-RISC
(and the HP 9000 712) weren't developed until long after the days of V6
and V7 UNIX.

Wouldn't it be easier to just get the PDP-11 emulator from 
gatekeeper.dec.com and compile it for HP-UX or Linux on the 712?  I've 
compiled it on Solaris 8, Linux, and Mac OS X, so it should compile just 
fine under HP-UX.

Also, as far as I am aware ( and keep in mind, I am an HP-UX system 
admin. ) HP-UX has only ever been System V. You can run HP-UX, Linux, or 
NetBSD on a HP-9000/{800,700}.

Yeah, I was originally intending to go into the M68k systems and wandered
into the 700 series by mistake.

I decided that emulation was probably the way to go.  NetBSD and OpenBSD on
the 700 , as well as PARISC Linux seems to be sailing into the duldrums.
Where I would expect it to be strong based on the lack of OS choices.  But
I'm not an architecture guy, so I imagine there is a lot of proprietary
stuff in the box that makes portin a challenge.

Thanks,

Mike
