So would I; the original HD in my vaxstation 4000/60 still has
5.5 in it, but I took it out, installed a larger disk and used
7.2 in it. I have the dream of using 5.5 in the vaxstation 2000;
I'd like to have the CD as well.

I think that this summer I will try to do the ROM burning/swapping
procedure in my VS2000 to see if the pk2k driver really does the
trick. I've recently restored my vs4000 back to functionality
and the experience has been rewarding; I think that I am going to
become a VMS fan.
