I ftp'd it from washington onto a VAX. I then downloaded boot-kermit, kermit.ini, and kermit to my C64 using xmodem - all binary transfers. I load"boot-kermit",8,1 and run. I get: 65,NO BLOCK,00,00 and the red light stays on. I run it again and get: 65,NO BLOCK,01,01 then I get 65,NO BLOCK,01,02. Meanwhile, checking the directory reveals that my available blocks are steadily decreasing. Any suggestions? Thanks, -Ken hampel@demon.siemens.com
