I have ultrix 3.1 running on an 11/53, but not really done much with it.
Things like telnet and ftp work, but the networking is fragile and
locks up regularly. No attempt at all to build a modified kernel.

I do have some rl02 packs with a unix system, but not sure what
machine they ran on, or if the last remaining rl02 drive still works,
it's been so long since it was powered up. Still have a couple of
RLV12 controllers though.

Most likely, but looking at that script, there is an error. Started out
with 1024x768 for one of the sizes, but the images were too large, so
went to 640x480.

The script lines of:

       if [ ! -e ${FILE}-1024x768.jpg ]
       then
          convert $i -resize 1024x768\> ${FILE}-640x480.jpg

should say:

       if [ ! -e ${FILE}-640x480.jpg ]
       then
          convert $i -resize 640x480\> ${FILE}-640x480.jpg

Looked up the wrong edit to copy and post :-(...
