Hi,
A plea, does anyone have a copy of OpenVMS Alpha V7.3-2? I have looked at all
my archives and only have it for VAX. An upgrade would also work as I have V7.3.
If someone has a copy in VMS so-called ISO format that would be great.
Just got a Personal Workstation 500au fully working
Well, it took a little bit of monkeying around but I was able to get the
the V7.3 ISO I received from a helpful fellow list member to boot on my
3000/400 ... it seems to only like my RRD37 drive and only on the internal
SCSI channel ... she is finicky ... but hey, whatever gets the job done :O
Woo
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

Thanks, Richard! I'll try some of the ISOs I received and failing that I
might take you up on your offer. I'm going to get this box running VMS one
way or the other :O

I've got a few to try so I'll burn those today and see what happens. For
the 8.4 disc I have, I used the same process to burn the disc that I did
for OpenVMS VAX V7.3 ... I just copied the *.iso to a Mac and used Disk
Utility to burn the *.iso just to a regular CD-R. For V7.3 VAX this
produced a
I'm all set; thanks to all that responded! I've got a few different *.isos
to try and hopefully one of them will be palatable to my old 3000/400 ...
I'd rather run VMS on it than Tru64 :O I truly appreciate it!
Best,
Sean

thanks for the info. The Alpha in question is a 2100 4/275. It works
enough to connect to the web but I need to fix one of the drives.

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
