check your cdrom microcode lscfg -vl cd0 if the ROS level is less than 1_06 then you need to update your cdrom microcode to be able to boot off a 5.1L cd. You can get microcode from here: http://techsupport.services.ibm.com/server/mdownload//download.html HTH Raj Atwal

I just took delivery of a p620 (refurbished) and am attempting to install AIX 5L on it. I put CD 1 in the drive and
hit F5, but it doesn't boot from the install media. Is there a trick to booting from a CD on these systems?? As
it is a refurbished machine, the documantation is loacking...

Thanks for the help,
