related question - I was not able to make a bootable/readable image from
the ISO I have 7.3, although it might have been a bad source. Is there a
best way/ best software to make a usable 7.3 install CD that will work in
an Alpha? Just curious as to why I was not able to make it work. I make
CD's all of the time from ISO, but maybe I need to do more research on the
subject as far as size and set up go for an Alpha-bootable CD, or CDRW type
I need to use, etc. I'd offer my ISO, but I don't know if it's good.

Maybe my RRD45 doesn't like the "700 MB
CD" ... does anyone know if it's
possible to bootstrap the installation from my existing CISC VAXcluster
with the ALPHA084*.ISO images I got from HP? Cross-platform MOP boot from
the VAX with the *.ISO images mounted locally on the VAX, perhaps? I assume
it's just a save set that's restored with the BACKUP command once one can
actually get to the point of a DCL prompt on the machine?
Best,
