[Simh] What is the file VAX/vmb.exe for?

[Peter Lund]

I noticed that simhv37-2.zip contains the file VAX/vmb.exe which wasn't
there in simhv36-0.zip (or thereabouts).

I can tell that it has something to do with booting due to it being
mentioned in the cpu_boot() function in VAX/vax780_sbi.c.  By googling
for it I found it mentioned in relation to some OpenVMS booting stuff
but that's pretty much all I know.

What is the relation between that and ka655x.bin?

PS: Is there an archive of earlier releases?
