Ask HN: Looking for PDP-11 Emulator

If possible, not JS/browser emulator, I would like to see as "seamless" integration as possible, ideally running UNIX or BSD from the regular Linux terminal

If you find SIMH, look for a "software" folder nearby, which contains several operating systems. Some of them, like Unix, may be tricky to install unless you have an installer's guide. BitSavers.org is a good site for documentation and several items of system software.

There is the pidp-11. I believe it does use a modified version of simh behind the scenes though.
