They are indeed very different.
Well, git commit ids are merely a hash value.
There is nothing sequential about them. 178968a is from some 11 days ago and should
certainly be more recent enough to perform the steps I outlined, so you shouldn't need
to rebuild the simulator.

MOUNT/OVER=ID MUA0:
The above gives me a list of errors. The OS does not like
it at all and IDK how
to copy the errors to a file to post them. It wants
_BUC$MUA0: . Not MUA0: at all.
2 things:
1) Don't expect later commands to be even slightly useful until AFTER you get the
earlier commands working as expected (i.e. the proper ATT TQ -F ANSI-VMS command).
2) Either _BUC$MUA0: or simply MUA0: will work once you've gotten far enough along.
If it doesn't then please show us exactly what error messages you are receiving.
You seemed to suggest that you were working on a Linux environment, use cut and paste
from the xterm session you are running under. If that's not what you're using,
then please explain exactly what's going on. Since you don't seem to be that
familiar with working in this environment, how did you manage to get the license file from
where you received the email to the environment you're running simh in?

One thing I despise generally Mark is GUIs, I have been working from
CLI. But I installed the LDXE desktop environment which I don't know
much about but copy/paste should be simple. LDXE gave me one Hell of a
time with copy/paste, and absolutely whatever I did would not let me
select from xterm or the desktop the errors. So I wrote them down and
will simply copy myself.
sim> att tq -f ansi-vms vmst /* the license file */
Can't open: //mst - no such file or directory.
Can't open tape image.
Of course there might be something I am forgetting and not doing here.
I also type at the prompt in all caps, same result. For example,
ATT -F ANSI-VMS? VMST
Same errors.
