A couple of points:
1) The ?53 self test error might be a red herring – I intermittently
get ?53 2 errors on both Windows (Intel) and Raspbian (pi 3) when
starting the VAX emulation under SIMH. I think it is something to do
with the clock test failing, because the emulation is sufficiently
fast that the test that the clock is advancing fails because it hasn’t
yet ticked during the test. Despite the message saying normal
operation not possible, if you try and boot VMS, it works fine.
2) I successfully boot my raspberry pi into my VMScluster (boot node
is SimH on Windows) without any faffing with tun/tap/br. I just ATTACH
XQ ETH0, and my Simh satellite happily boots from XQ. I realise that
I might need more infrastructure if I needed local routing from VAX to
host (without echo from a physical ethernet switch), but for normal
VMS operation in a cluster, it works fine without.

1. Yes I have observerd that as well.
2. Indeed. The bridge/tun/tap is only needed when you want to use a
single physical interface on the Pi to accomodate both access to the
virtual simh VAX and to the Raspbian host.For example, using my
setup, I can telnet into the VAXcluster and ssh into the Raspbian OS
rom my Windows laptop (and any other Pi in the 4 node VAXcluster)
simulateously.
