+Managed to find my old
+Xeltec SuperPro
+and some 27256 parts buried in the far corner of the basement,
+and so with the help of Jonathan Engdahl's
+KDJ11-D/S page,
+my CPU board now thinks it's part of an 11/53 instead of a Decserver
+550. While I had the board out of the chassis, I changed
+the console serial port to 38k4, leaving the second serial port at 9k6 since
+that's what vtserver expects.
+
+Telling the monitor to boot from SCSI disk flashes the drive activity LED,
+then tells me the media isn't bootable. That makes sense since I haven't put
+any suitable bits on the drive yet... and suggests I may be only another
+serial cable away from trying to install 2.11bsd.
