About boot media for AIX

You must have the AIX installation program that created the SRT that you want to use to create the boot media. (You must have it even if you created the SRT from a network copy of the media.) You must enter the device name that contains the installation program.

The directory for the CD/DVD image should not be a direct prefix of the directory that contains the SRT you intend to use.

For example, for SRT /export/srt/aix433esm, you can use the following:

Do not specify /, /export, or /export/srt for the location.
You can specify /export/srt/mb because it is not a direct prefix of the SRT path.
