Commodore has stated that their UNIX requires an MMU.  So, a 2000
would require a '020 or '030 card with MMU in order to run UNIX.

It won't. You have to have something with an MMU. Things may be more
strict that that.

    A developer I talk to often has a 2000 with an 030 card. In
    conversation with him I get the impression you can run it on a
    2000 w/ 030 processor. He also stated that it would be able to run
    Sun executables directly without recompiling.

4498.4unix not requiredSALEM::LEIMBERGERFri Feb 08 1991 05:215
    the above mentioned products should be functional in a plain 2000(not
    unix) with XII . So even if you don,t have unix you can still hook up
    to the vax.
