<p class=MsoNormal>I would suggest trying to boot directly from the CD
device... I think you can just point readcd to /dev/disk1 to creat an 'better'
ISO image... I know for making Solaris CD images I needed to use readcd vs dd
as readcd could deal with different sessions, and sector sizes...<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi,<br>
<br>
I followed the howto on the <a href="http://simh.darwinports.com/"
target="_blank">http://simh.darwinports.com/</a> for<br>
installing the simh port on my MAC OS (10.6.4).<br>
<br>
Then I dumped the content of the installation DVD to the file (trying<br>
to install the OpenVMS system):<br>
dd if=/dev/disk2s0 of=vaxvmscd.iso bs=2k<br>
<br>
And created the system file:<br>
dd if=/dev/zero of=vaxvmsssys.iso bs=512 count=9600000<br>
<br>
Made the ini file:<br>
LOAD -r KA655x.BIN<br>
ATTACH nvr nvram.bin<br>
ATTACH RQ0 vaxvmsssys.iso<br>
SET RQ0 RA90<br>
ATTACH RQ1 vaxvmscd.iso<br>
SET RQ1 RRD40<br>
SET CPU IDLE=VMS<br>
BOOT CPU<br>
<br>
Then when I try to boot from the cdrom I got this error:<br>
<br>
sh-3.2# simh-vax -v vaxvms.ini<br>
<br>
VAX simulator V3.8-1<br>
do> LOAD -r KA655x.BIN<br>

<br>
I don't know how to move forward. I would appreciate if someone could help me.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
