There is an emulator for the 1130 at http://ibm1130.org/sim/ ... it
includes OS disks and source code, including for the OS (called Disk
Monitor Version 2 or DMV2).

It will take a bit to get the one at VCF running. Carl Claunch understands
this stuff deeply. https://rescue1130.blogspot.com/ is his blog. He is
working on one now.

Regards,
Bob
