We are running a VAX785 with 2 unibuses, 6 ra81s, 2 dzs, and 
8 MB of memory. There are no software changes except making
a new floppy for booting using the wcs on DEC's console floppy
and adding the 4.2 stuff. The only hardware problem we have 
had is with the floating point boards. We are running with
them pulled out and the performance seems to be ok.
Also if you plan to run 2 uda's you should also run 2
unibuses. We have one uda on a uba alone with a 0 delay
on the uda, but on the other uda we are running a 6.2 ms
delay because of the other boards in that uba.
