I ran into some ready to run emulator packages at hampa.ch when looking for PC/IX recently. That was easy to start but turns out I don't know how to use PC/IX or what's included, other than the base OS, and how to use any of that. For sure it's a really limited Unix port since the target HW is the original PC or PC/XT. They have Xenix 2.1.3 as well, in a similar ready to run package.
