New find this weekend

This weekend I picked up a DECsystem 5000/240 system, with 112MB of ram,
and a Prestoserve NVram card in the last slot (otherwise it would be
120MB of ram). This system was never turned on! Brand new, just never
got used...
I have a 2gb disk, and cdrom on it, and am installing Ultrix 4.5 now...
I am using a VT510 as the console.

Anyone know how to setup, etc the Prestoserve option?
Does Ultrix 4.5 like a 4.3 gb disk? I have a barracuda I was going to
hook up as rz1 for a data drive.
I have an exabyte 4mm dat drive, I would like to hook that up as tape
backup... comments ???

Anyone else running this fine system?
