With the demise of the HPE hobbyist program, it seems like
availability of the VAX kits are similarly limited? My copy
of VAXVMS073.ZIP seems to be corrupted:

Archive: VAXVMS073.ZIP
This is the OpenVMS VAX
V7.3 operating system CD-ROM.
This is the FIRST disk of the OpenVMS VAX CD-ROM kit.
This kit specifically contains a zip of a BACKUP/IMAGE of the
installation CD-ROM medium. To (correctly) decompress, use a
version of unzip that preserves the OpenVMS file attributes, or
use a tool that will restore the BACKUP saveset attributes.
To install this kit, unzip it, BACKUP/IMAGE to restore it to a
scratch disk, then install or upgrade OpenVMS using the standard
procedures for CD-ROM distribution kits.

Am I just holding it wrong? Thanks!
