Finally, here's the happy news message we've all been waiting for for so
long:
I can now confirm the first boot of OpenVMS on the ES40 emulator. In honour
of good OpenVMS engineering practice, I've defined "first boot" as the first
succesful directory listing.
This feat was accomplished by Eduardo Marcelo Serrat, who sent me a couple
of patches that made this possible.
I'm currently integrating his changes into the repository, so you can expect
the availability of a new version release soon.
Many thanks to Eduardo for his fine work.
Best regards,
Camiel.
Before I forget, here's the directory listing:
