Gerry,

Your friend with the I64 on your retro network wouldn't be willing to share some layered product installers (i.e. compilers etc), I've got the paks but again no install media.

Yeah, the EFI stuff is ACTUALLY quite self explanatory, I think I

devices will work :)

Are you sure you do want to go with a USB disk? Reading around about either
VMS or EFI USB support, it appears that it could be a nightmare... Wouldn't be
better to spend your efforts looking for a SCSI disk instead? :)
