Further info - It appears that the paramters used to create this ISO image
and also to burn the CDR with Nero are suspect. Can anybody suggest a
working method of creating ISO images from original bootable CD and
associated parameters in Nero for taking the ISO image and creating a
bootable CDR ?

I have recently made a copy of the 4 x AIX 4.3.3 install disks so that I can
install them onto my 43p-260. When I try to boot from disk 1 it does not
find a bootable operating system and continues to boot from my existing disk
installation. I know that the cdrom is setup correctly since I recently
installed aix 5.1 on same system. My objective is to have 5.1 and 4.3.3 on
separate disks and use multi-boot to determine which disk device to boot
from, but I am having problems with the initial boot of the cdrom to get the
install started. Does any body have any ideas what might be causing this ?
When running 5.1 I can mount the cdrom for aix 4.3.3 install and its
contents are readable - see below :
# ls -R /cdrom
bosinst.data image.data oslevel ppc root usr
.version
/cdrom/ppc:
bootinfo.txt chrp
/cdrom/ppc/chrp:
bootfile.exe
/cdrom/root:
etc sbin
/cdrom/root/etc:
consdef filesystems objrepos preserve.list
/cdrom/root/etc/objrepos:
cdiagatt cdiagatt.vc cdiagdev davars frub frus
menugoal tminput
/cdrom/root/sbin:
comp.kext comp.uext helpers
etc.
