I realized I just responded to Scott. For the rest of you:

Uh Yeah!!  More info please!  :-)

I've enhanced the ES40 Alpha emulator to run more smoothly on Z (added
some instruction optimization for the z9 instruction set, and some
lookahead code to try to do a better job of predictive branching on Z
(the Alpha does this strangely)). It seems to deal pretty well with
OpenVMS 7.x Alpha install CDs up to the point of going multiuser - I
think I have something wrong in the stack handler, but I'm making
progress.

 

What interests you about it? I'd like to be able to tell the IBM PTBs
that someone is really interested. 8-)
