Hi Pierre,

I would be very surprised if there would be any version of OpenVMS freely
available. At least we payed quite a lot of bucks for it :(.

But there is a RedHat Linux avaible for alphas. Maybe this fit you needs.
Have a look at

http://www.alphalinux.org/faq/FAQ-8.html

for a discussion about your hardware. The RedHat distribution (with some
fixes done by HP) is avaible for download at

Cheers,

  Torsten
