Can I copy the mysysb "file" to a CD on my PC and use this in
conjunction with a bootable OS disk to do the rebuild?

Many Thanks,

Yes -- the easiest thing to do is to save your mksysb to an NFS share
on another system and run NIM on that system. Assuming you mount the
nfs share to /mnt, the command line would look like:
mksysb /mnt/mksysb_name
