Unix for 8080/Z80? [Re: WooHoo!! PC/XT Unix anyone?]

There was a little Unix-like system called MARC (Machine Assisted Resource
Coordinator),
written by Ed Ziemba. Unfortunately, Ed met an untimely death in a
recreational accident,
so it was never really finished. MARC used CP/M for a host boot, and the
versions that I
tinkered with used the CP/M BIOS for I/O to the disk.
