Ok thanks for the verification. I'll download and unzip again.
Attached pic is the PDP emulator on the VT100 at CCH.

On V10.1, right?  I just tried it and it worked fine.  Remember that you need the pack ID (which is "games") to mount the disk, unless you use the /override switch to say "mount it without pack ID check".  Here's a test run:
