Well, compared to a Unix system (including DEC's)
it *is* difficult and cumbersome.
You'd have to load those UCX PAKs before, for example.
And have some extra fun on the VS4000 (which is what
the OP uses) with that braindead  MIN_INTSTKPAGES=12
to be included in sys$system:modparams.dat.
And another "autogen" run, which seems to be the
equivalent of Unix kernel builds of yore.
You wouldn't think this is the 21st century,
but the label on the VAX VMS CD says "July 2002" ...
