It's amazing what happens when you follow the

help, folks. I have 2.11BSD up and running on my 11/73 (booted off the
disk, even), and it's currently untarring the last big chunk of /usr/src.
Good job!
I also
need to dig into the machine a bit more - the bootloader tells me I have an
11/83, so I'm suspecting the CPU was changed at some point.
A KDJ-11B CPU board (quad height) with Qbus memory is an 11/73, while a
KDJ-11B CPU with PMI memory is an 11/83. The boot loaded likely just
identifies the CPU board type and assumes a /83. It would only claim a
/73 if it were running on a KDB-11 (dual height) card.
