Jordi,

Thanks for the report. Not sure what went wrong. I quickly ripped them and put them up but didn't test them.   I'll put them in some real DEC hardware today and see what's going on.

Hello All,

Thanks to the kind donation of CDs from Scott Martin from the Vintage Computing linkedin group, I now have the OpenVMS VAX software product library collection from December 2007 available on my site.   Feel free to grab a copy.

For some reason, VMS running under simh does not like your images:

MacOSX is not able to mount them either, so I guess they are not in ISO format. VMS says they are not Files-11 either.
