Greetings DECoids!

I recently purchased a PDP11/34, w/ 256kb memory, and two RK05
disks (not sure what else, I haven't picked it up yet).  I plan
to run RT-11 on it and program in MACRO-11, for now at least.

I'm not hardware oriented (How many programmers does it take to
change a light bulb?  Can't be done, it's hardware), so I'll be
learning as I go.  What I'd like to do is get a version of Unix,
with source, that I could run on the 11.  Is there anyone out
there who has experience with this type of configuration?  A real
old version of Unix would be fine, and probably preferable.
How much disk space would I need for, say, a version of SYS 7?
What kind of disks can I hang off an 11/34?  ANY information
would be appreciated, like I say, I'm a programmer! :-)

Oh yeah, almost forgot, can I get TECO for RT-11?  I love TECO,
haven't used it in years, but I still haven't found an editor
that even comes close to it, IMHO!
