Yup, DEC's Holmdel office ( (201) 946-9403 )  has written one that works for
both for System V and System VR2. As released, however, it only supports the
UDA50 controller on its own UNIBUS. It is possible to boot a system configured
for the UDA50 on the same Unibus as the other periphs., but due to the
Unibus mapping problem (uh... I mean feature), the kernal cannot be very
large and DEC will not support this configuration. Call 'em for more info.

I believe the object code costs about $ 2.5K.

Cheers!
