I wouldn't expect pool to be a problem. Pool is really limited by
totally different parameters, and in fact, I would think that an 11/55
might have plenty of pool. An 11/24 on the other hand is totally staved
on pool, even if you have 4M in the machine... (And that is a supported
machine.) The key is split I/D space.
However, the 11/55 might be short on memory in general... The GEN
partition might not hold enough to make the system that usable. Lots of
swapping possibly.

Dead? Mine run great.
I just resurrected my PDP-11/05 today. 11/55 last week.
Unfortunately, the 11/05 will not ever be able to run my TCP/IP. However, the 11/55 could possibly stand a chance.
Huh? Doesn't RSX11M-Plus require more than 18 bits' worth of RAM, and
doesn't your IP stack require -Plus? Yes on the second question, and sortof maybe not
on the first one.
Officially M+ requires 22-bit addressing, but it can be generated for
18-bit systems. But I have never tried it to see how it fares...

I've heard reports it tends to leave you a little tight on pool.
