- Greetings: I am new to RISC 6000 and AIX and I know RTFM but we do
- not have all the manuals delivered yet.
- I am trying to install AIX 3.2.1 from an 8mm tape to the Hard disk.
- I have used the following procedure with no success:
- 1. Shutdown system.
- 2. Turned off the power.
- 3. Turned the system key to SECURE.
- 4. turned on all attached devices.
- 5. turned the system unit power on.
- 6. received the '200' code.
- 7. Inserted the 8mm tape and shut the door.
- 8. turned the system key to 'SERVICE'.
- 9. Press the yellow system reset buttom twice.
- 10.Selected 'EXIT MAIN MENU AND START SYSTEM BOOT'
- I never receive the 'C31' status nor do I receive the Installation
- and Maintenance menu.
- I do receive a menu asking if I want to run diagnostics.
- Can anyone determine what I have done incorrectly.
