I think that it can't find a valid boot device.
You should check your boot list and hardware. If necessary you can
re-create the boot device by booting in maintenance mode and running
bosboot.
Instructions for this and similar problems can be found in the "Problem
Solving and Troubleshooting" Redbook. I don't have an AIX 4.3.3 version to
hand, but if you can't find one on the Redbooks site the 5L version should
still be OK for this.

I'm on an OLD 4.3.3 system and I just rebooted. I'm getting "PReP-BOOT :
Unable to load PReP Image." Any ideas??
Thanks - Steve
