Motorola has a IEEE488 VME module, the MVME300.  They show it as being
supported by VERSAdos and System V/68.

I have no personal experience with this board, and I do not see a driver
specifically for it in my release of System V/68.  Perhaps it comes with
its own drivers?

For more information, you may want to call Motorola's Microcomputer Division.
Their phone number is 1-800-556-1234 x230.
