As my PDP-11 came without peripherals I need something to make it come alive..
Unibus information
There are multiple parts inside an Unibus:
UNIBUS Slots are the real Unibus
SPC are slots usually reserved for peripheral cards?
In addition, there are two versions of Unibus. Normal Unibus and modified Unibus. These are not compatible! In “newer” PDP-11’s both of these are present on the backplane, and it is a bad idea to use boards meant for the one in the other.
Picture from here, where there is also way more information.
To test the Unibone we need it in a terminated backplane like the DD11-CK:
We need two passive terminators (M930, donated by Geert):
Login to the Unibone with:
ssh root@ip
password: root
Follow the test instructions from here
