So what's this bit of code doing in uvaxII_conf() in uvaxII.c?
switch (cpu_type) {

strcpy(cpu_model,"MicroVAX 2000");
break;

Right. So what's involved in getting `everything around' running?
How much coding would be necessary? Is adequate documentation easily
available? Is this a project I should take up for my spare time,
