The answer was SET FILE TYPE FIXED.
But how about this:
%STDRV-I-STARTUP, OpenVMS startup begun at 10-DEC-2001 22:56:23.89
%SYSGEN-E-SYSVERDIF, system version mismatch - reassemble and relink driver
-SYSGEN-I-DRIVENAM, driver name is SIDRIVER
%SYSGEN-E-SYSVERDIF, system version mismatch - reassemble and relink driver
-SYSGEN-I-DRIVENAM, driver name is SIDRIVER
this driver version mismatch prevents me from doing a SYSGEN
etc. Where can I turn off dependency to this driver?

Hi,
I'm ripping my hair out over VMS (as usual). I have a little
magic file that I need to transfer from PC to VAX. And
kermit on both ends. I thought I knew how to use kermit,
but no matter what I do, the file will never work as an
executable on the VAX. It always complains about a corrupt
descriptor block and it comes up too long. The file is
exactly 2048 bytes long and when I send it it comes up as
5/6 blocks with DIR/SIZE=ALL. That is one block too many,
isn't it?
The funny thing is, when I do a round trip with kermit
PC -put-> VAX -get-> PC, I get two identical files on the
PC. But when I do VAX -get-> PC -put-> VAX of a working
.EXE file on the VAX, I end up with a broken copy (same
error.) So, what can I do?
I have SET FILE TYPE BINARY on both sides.
I'm so sorry for bothering you with my VMS ignorance, I
greatly appreciate your patience and help.
regards
