I'd like to know too. I ended up buying an RRD-40 cdrom drive as none
of my other 512byte-selectable scsi cdrom drives would boot the hobby
cd.
I tried just to back the cd up onto cdr and got a trash cd.
Regards,
jeff

Subject: Reading a VMS CD-ROM for SIMH under Windows?
I know exactly what to do under UNIX, but I'm attempting to help out
someone else - I have the Montagar Hobbyist CD-ROM and I'm trying to
create an ISO file to feed to SIMH. We have tried three different
CD-ROM slurping programs from
shareware.com and
download.com, but
no success. They seem to have heartburn because the disc is not
mounted under Windows.
Has anyone gone from CD-ROM to running VAX under Windows? How did
you get files off the distro?
Thanks,
-ethan
