*Neat*! I was thinking of trying to lay this down on a real 11/23+ here
at the house, then realized I didn't have two RD51's. Can it gen on an
RD53 by chance, I could upload one of those to a disk in a weekend or
immediately with the Dave Gesswin emulator (which I need to return but
we're just about to pull out those big Perqs)

Recently Al Kossow made available a zip file containing a Micro/PDP-11

Tinkering away here in Covid lockdown, I've managed to get this running
under SIMH pdp11 emulating an almost historically accurate PDP-11/23
plus.
I've placed the SIMH initialisation file, a couple of RD51 disk images
and
an "installation recipe" for making these disks on GitHub at -

While I mainly had exposure to later versions of Unix and Ultrix-11 on
a PDP-11/70 as an undergraduate - this one surely brings back memories!

Glad to hear that worked out for you. I obtained those floppies from a
friend doing some work for UW Madison back in the day. I provided Al
scans of the manuals, too, but they have not been put up on bitsavers yet.
