Install Quasijarus on a more traditional vax processor = with RH style disks [RMxx/RPxx] on the simh.   Then add a = virtual RZ SCSI disk to the simh system [although you might not even = need to do that - as simh just sees the disk as a linear file of blocks = without any geometry].  The trick is to make sure the virtual = disk is set up so that you have a working system/booting system on the = virtual disk when changing the processor type to match the = VAXstation.  Then just DD the image to a real SCSI drive and = move it to the VAXstation.

I=E2=80=99m guessing I will at least have to = copy the right bootloader and update the fstab, but I=E2=80=99ll copy = the disk after installation and then see what happens.
