The hobbiest is the same save for included app on the CDrom. Your fixes
work but the need to do that was likely due to wrong installation options
having been selected. I did it based on the 5.4 kits I knew from DEC
and the DECwindows server and all installed as expected.

FYI the most common problem is not having the licenses (all) at first
install and having to go back and run LMF or VMSinstal to add.
