What is this thing "DVD" you keep mentioning? :-)
I haven't booted from one of those in years except to install VIOS.
Firstly You can host the i_BASE disk in the host partition in an image
catalog and boot from that. It is STUPID fast too, you get C600 codes
before the HMC can refresh!
Mostly though I do network installs because with that you don't need any
i_BASE from IBM you can use DSLO media with all the PTFs already applied.

Larry,
Far be it from me to question you on items like this but one still needs
that DVD to boot from, even on a guested lpar.
I've had to burn newer respins just to get through this before.
