Thank you very much, your tape image works perfectly.
I'm sorry I missed the one at bitsavers, but maybe yours is a little
different (MicroVMS vs. VMS). I will have a look at that later.
Do you have the DEC order number for your tape - something beginning like
"AG-*****-BN"?
Can I do anything for you in return?
Ulli
P.S.
Here is the installation log:
