Bill,
The only thing I can think of is possibly the firmware of the CDrom drive
itself. I ran into that same thing upgrading to 5.1. The 4.3.3 install went
fine, but the 5.1 CD's couldn't be read by the same CDrom for the migration.
Here is the URL for the Ucode, currently I get a 'Internal Server Error' for
IBM's site, but this is where I have gotten the updates from before.

HTH,

Subject: won't boot from CD-ROM
I have two 7043-140s, nodeA and noteB, running AIX
4.3.3.10. they have same version of firmware,
TIG01150.
CD-ROM on nodeB doesn't work anymore. It used to work.
The CD-ROM with id=4 can seen in SMS but the system
can't be booted from it. The Operator Panel Display
shows 517 for a little while and then stay on 518.
Being moved this CD-ROM to nodeA, it works just fine.
Can somebody direct me how to troubleshoot this one?
Thanks a lot.
Bill
