OK, generally that would be listed as 256KW, so wasn't sure which it was.

I had 4MB in my main one, which is where a PDP-11 maxes out, however, I
downgraded to 2MB, as I didn't need that much and wanted to keep the other
2MB board as a spare. I'd have even less in the system, but I run a couple
other OS's on it that can make better use of RAM (but even for them 2MB is
an outrageous amount of RAM for a single user system).

Try typing 'help'.
No need for virtual memory that I'm aware of, and as far as I know it doesn't.
Do you have an ethernet card for it? If so you can get TCP/IP for it for
free (the only PDP-11 OS with free TCP/IP).
