Hello from a former DEC employee

I worked for Digital from 1977 to 1980 in the Maynard 'Mill' complex. I was in the PDP11 eval group, and mostly worked with the Qbus products. I recently re-discovered sample T-11 and Dlart chips I got years ago and stashed in the junque box. I'd like to build a working machine from these parts, I was thinking of adding a 74HCT612 to simulate the memory management unit of the unibus machines. If I can use the 'fetch' status output by the T11, I could even have separate I and D spaces in memory.

Does anybody have a machine readable copy of the Falcon uODT source? I'd need to build that onto rom for this.
I've heard that Alan Cox has released a unix like kernel for the Z80 that has been ported for the PDP-11. It uses a memory banked scheme, and with the '612 chip added to the T-11, this ought to run fine on it.
