Several people asked to make UniBone PDP-10able, it should be not problem.

UNIBUS PA,PB are (like all other signals) just pins on a GPIO multiplier, no interpretation is done in hardware.

On software side the PRU must sample 18bit instead of 16bit for DATA, then lots of "uint16_t" must be changed to "uint32_t" in the whole software stack.

Not clear what to do with existing device emulators: did DEC construct 18bit mutants for a few PDP-11 peripherals to run them in KS10?

UNIBUS on a PDP-10 makes only sense to me if the big pool of PDP-11 peripherals can be used directly.

regards,

Joerg
