Am trying to complete a new AIX4.3.3 install on a B80 box. Using an
ASCII terminal (WinNT laptop running hyperterminal with correct settings
as described in the AIX 4.3.3 install guide). Installing from cdrom media
without problem.
The problem is:
Comes to the stage of starting the installation assistant after the system
reboot and
instead it goes straight to a console login prompt. Unable to do anything at
this point. Need the install_assist to configure the root password, set time
etc etc. Any ideas or solutions?
Have re-installed from scratch (i.e. New Install) twice, rebooted several
times and
been unable to find any joyous help in the IBM documentation. The cdrom
media is
dated 09/2001 so hoping no bugs etc. Have not read anywhere that the B80
cannot
run 4.3.3...
Thanks in advance
Rex
