Fixing AIX Diskettes
I tried to create the Install.img diskette on my NT system. All
the other diskettes that I created were unreadable by NT (understandable
since they were now an AIX file system).
Rick Ekblaw pulls up a chair and pontificates with:
First, note that the existing Install diskette image
has PC-DOS 3.3 data in the first 8 sectors (4096 bytes). Looking
at my AIX 1.2.1 Install diskette, I can see that the Install diskette is
supposed to be AIX bootable.
I did my testing on a 9590-DLG machine equipped with 16MB of
RAM, an XGA-2 adapter and a single 540MB SCSI hard drive (Spock Prime SCSI
adapter). During the initial installation phase, there is only a
single XGA-2 choice (with 8517 monitor).
