[Simh] need help with vax780 on linux

[Dan Gahlinger]

I got a DSK file from other user which works fine on their system,
but when I try it on my linux system I just get errors, no matter how I try to boot it.

I don't know if this is a bug in SIMH on my linux (suse 11.3 64bit on amd phenom-ii quad-core)
or something I'm doing wrong, but the most recent error is the 2nd one,
which seems to indicate a fatal bug in simh, this is in the latest code version I could download of simh...

sim> boot rq0
Loading boot code from vmb.exe
%BOOT-F-Unable to locate BOOT fil
HALT instruction, PC: 000004C7 (BLBS 549,4C6)
sim> 

tried it this way and got -

sim> boot rq0
Loading boot code from vmb.exe
