I don't know whether you run VMS or UNIX, but in the former case: did you
really try my GCG-menu?
1.) Pick it up from the EMBL file server
2.) uudecode it
3.) unzip
4.) $ @sys$update:vmsinstal
5.) answer a few questions
- product to install?
- where is the saveset located?
- are you satisfied with the backup of your system disk?
- users ... are working, continue anyway?
- enter disk where GCG-menu should be installed
- enter directory...
6.) You are done in less than half an hour.
In case that you send me a tape you may skip topics 1.) to 3.)
Cheers
