    I'm having trouble reconfiguring my V7m-11 unix.  I have a PDP11-23+
processor and recently I purchased a PDP11-73 processor from DEC to upgrade.
I was told that the new processor was upward compatable and that almost all
programs run on it without modification.  Well, I'm having some trouble running
V7m so I decided to try and reconfigure the OS to for the PDP11-70 with split
I & D and no overlays, but I can't do it.  The seperate I & D space libraries
are missing (I have only object code).  Does anyone know how to get around
this?  DEC is no help.  They no longer support V7.  All I get out of them
is buy ULTRIX11 for more money, sigh!

    Also, I new to the PDP11 world.  How hard is it to upgrade to BSD 2.9?
How much does it cost?
