As for the K version it doesn't need a 110 CPU, but if it's /VSX it needs a 100/CX, i.e. the extra CX instructions must be there. K came in both VSE (no CX needed) and VSX (CX needed).

Hi fellow emulator writer! My own emulator is more similar to Carl-Victor's, I emulate SINTRAN but can't boot it.
As for the K version it doesn't need a 110 CPU, but if it's /VSX it needs a 100/CX, i.e. the extra CX instructions must be there. K came in both VSE (no CX needed) and VSX (CX needed). From version L and later only CX versions would work - I think even version M would run on a plain 100/CX.
As for the disk for M, as with all SINTRAN images they were generated for a specific configuration, and the version I have, at least, was generated for a setup with SCSI disks only. TArntsen (talk) 08:53, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
