[Info-vax] Burning cd for use in OpenVMS

Hi,

I forgot to timely renew my hobbyist license, and now I'm unable to access 
the machine by network (tcpip doesn't work anymore). OpenVMS doesn't seem 
to able to access FAT formatted diskettes, so now I want to burn a cd with 
the new license on FreeBSD. But how do I do that? I burned the license 
file to a cd-rw but OpenVMS can't mount it (keeps asking for "Please mount 
device _OVMS1$DKA500:". What kind of format is needed for OpenVMS in order 
to mount and read a cdrom?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Marco
