BITXOO runs 4.7 ;)

I can post a RL02 with a bootable 4.7 BACKUP if that could be of help to bootstrap the 4.7 install.

No need now, I figured it with a little help from the mailing list and then some random button mashing.

Thanks though. We could maybe put some documentation on doing this whole install up somewhere. Maybe a wiki article over on gunkies? ;)

Also, how did you license decnet? It asks me to license it when I run STARTNET.COM 

(fun fact: I found a typo when running NETCONFIG on 5.2)

Johnny,

Please add node 19.140 name DWARF to DECnet.   It is a SimH
instance on 
a Raspberry Pi.   It will be running VMS (VAX-11/780).

Which version of VMS?

V7.3 at the moment.   It will be running multiple versions as time
permits.   It is a dual boot.   It can boot standalone or as a cluster
member (satellite).   When I find my VAX-11/780 documentation I will
choose the drives that were available at the time to be as close as
possible to a "real" system.

I think I may do something similar, due to having difficulty booting anything other than V7.3 on the 780 simulator. ;)
