- There's a 'Unix' for the LSI-11, and with minor changes (the LSI-11
isn't
100% compatible with other MMU-less 11's, but the changes are minor, e.g.
MOS, written in MACRO-11, was conditionalized to run on both the LSI-11
and the -11/20) it should run on an /04.

There’s always MiniUnix. https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Distributions/USDL/Mini-Unix/

We ran that on our MMU-less PDP-11/20s and 11/40 before the LSI-11 was even introduced.
It lacks obviously memory protection, traditional UNIX pipes (they’re simulated by the
shell if I recall), and preemptive scheduling.
