[Simh] Problem booting new install

[Milton M. Baar]

Hi All

I have just downloaded and installed SIMH on a WXP server.  I used Nero to make an ISO disk image of AlphaVMS7.2-2.  I then used the following vax.ini file:
; Load CPU microcode
load -r ka655x.bin
;
; Attach non-volatile RAM to a file
attach nvr nvram.bin
;
; This virtual machine has 64M memory
set cpu 64m
;
; Define disk drive types. RA92 is largest-supported VAX drive.
set rq0 ra92
set rq1 ra92
set rq2 ra92
set rq3 cdrom
;
; Attach defined drives to local files
attach rq0 d0.dsk
attach rq1 d1.dsk
attach rq2 d2.dsk
;
; Attach the CD-ROM to its file (read-only)
attach -r rq3 alpha.iso
;
; Disable unused devices. It's also possible to disable individual devices,
; using a construction like "set rq2 disable" if desired.
;
set rl disable
set ts disable
;
; Attach Ethernet to a network interface
;set xq mac=08-00-2B-AA-BB-CC
;attach xq eth0
;
; Now start the emulator
boot cpu

This produces the following output:
VAX simulator V3.2-3
NVR: buffering file in memory
RQ: unit is read only

OK, so far, so good. However, when I issue boot dua3, I get:

>>>b dua3

I have checked the ISO image and it is contiguous, as are the .dsk files which are, however, 0 bytes long.  So, what have I done wrong here?
