Operating Systems
The following Operating Systems can run on the MicroVAX II
VMS
Version 4.5 and higher can run
Digital Unix
CSRG BSD
NetBSD
Version 1.2 and higher of the VAX port of NetBSD can run on a MicroVAX II. I've even built some instructions [[Installing NetBSD 1.2 on the SIMH MicroVAX II |using SIMH]] on how to do so, that may be adapted to a real MicroVAX but I don't have one to test with.
OpenBSD
OpenBSD can run on the MicroVAX II as well, later versions are better for timing issues... 4.4 is the current good version.
Emulation
The MicroVAX II is emulated in SIMH.
