Hello fron Gregg C Levine
Um no. I was thinking of V7, of the original UNIX. As it happens, I am still
not comfortable with the earlier versions of BSD. So, I am interested in
getting V7, or V6 to work via a networked environment. And yes, I have seen
your file, and the read me for it.

Either native, and on a Simh setup will do.
If you are asking about 2.11BSD, I have managed to build a kernel with
networking support which works on simh. It is at:
http://www.tuhs.org/Archive/PDP-11/Boot_Images/2.11_on_Simh/
It's probably not suitable for a real PDP since it only supports RA/MSCP
and ram disks, and TS tape drives.
