I got a few responses, all basacially concerred with my assumption that the following criteria are needed to consitute TRU64 V5.1B-1

  1) Install TRU64 V5.1B
  2) Also be at Patch Kit #3
  3) Install the NDH-7 which gives you a fileset OSHHWBASE543

I basically had already figured that out anyhow. I got a TRU64 V5.1B-1 kit sent to me via contract but the documentation in that kit never really explains V5.1B-1. Others have posted similar questions?

Someone also informed me that TRU64 V5.1B-2 was due out soon and its also a hardware related thing.
