That kills my idea!  I don't think a 68000 will save much time for PDP-8
instructions. I am glad you got the PDP8 booting OS9.

Now my real question is how hard would it be getting a IDE interface to
look like the real  RK8-P Disk using a CPLD. The rest of the PDP8 in 5
CPLD's seem easy to do. 3 ALU, 1 Control , Timing and Serial I/O, IDE
interface.
