A friend of mine would like to know if there is a version of UNIX available
for a VAX 730 other than Ultrix?  He does not need a source licence, just 
the standard distribution of OS and related tools and utilities.   The
configuration of the machine is as follows:

                VAX 730 w/ 3 Mb memory
                RMO 3 equivalents with 1 controller
                2 @ 67 Mb, 1 @ 130 Mb

Is there a BSD or SYS V version which would work on this architecture?  If so
which release would be appropriate?  Also, where can one obtain it?

Thanks in advance for any help you could offer.
