Is it possible to use bigger than 1GB as system ? Don't know ...

7.1 or 7.2.1 ? IIRC, there were some issues before 7.2 with non dec drives
during install, but I'm not sure.

Just for the heck of it, (Never installed VMS on a VLC before) i tried it
few hours before.
I took a TEAC CDROM + 1 GB Fujitsu Drive. Took me around 1 hour to logon in
DECWindows, without any problems.

Good luck,
