Single lpar Power 8?

If it was a host/guest situation I would have a host lpar at 7.3. Send
over that image. Set that up in NFS and boot from that.

Other than that IDK how you would do it from image.

Terms coming to mind would be:
"alternate IPL device"
"alternate installation device"

I think you'd just be better off, with a single lpar situation, going to
tape.
Let me guess, no compatible tape drive?
