3698.0. "V5.4 Instal of images to reduce memory ref 3328" by COGITO::ZIKA (z) Tue Nov 20 1990 10:52

Following the advice of VAX/VMS V5.4 Release Notes Appendix B page B-3
    I am installing commonly used DECwindows images.
    
    Does this look correct? Can anyone point me to furthur documentation.
    I am concerned about image privileges or other attributes I may be
    missing.

Your install commands look reasonable, except that /SYSTEM should be
/SHARE (looks like you got carried away on a global substitute).

You don't have to worry about image privileges -- if the images
needed them to run, they would have already been installed by
the regular startup procedures!

    .Re -1
    Thanks, now I feel confident about all those components working.
    
    Also, I noticed the /system should have been /SHARE after checking the
    SYSTARTUP_V5.LOGs of the next reboot. 
    All are *now* installed and running correctly, quickly, and with less
    memory.
