Thanks, I hadn't found that yet. Unfortunately it assumes that you have a

I have several ideas about how one might go about building the tree using
existing distributions but any further discussion probably isn't
appropriate for this list. If anyone would like to collaborate please feel

I don’t recall their being detailed installation
instructions like
v8/v9. I never noticed the vax boot stuff as it was buried in
the tree.
It’s possible that it’s buildable. Or it could be incomplete like the Mach
2.5 VAX missing system headers….
I guess it’s worth trying on whatever should be the parallel BSD system
if it’s
like v8/v9 which needed a BSD machine to bootstrap.
