installing AIX 5.2 on 7012/39H from cdrom

Hi,

I would appreciate any help with the following, please:

I have a RS/6000 7012/39H that I am trying to load. I do not have the root passwd or any other shell access.

I am trying to boot off the AIX 5.2 volume 1 of 7 cd to begin the installation.
The machine has a terminal for the console.

I have tried:
- booting with the key in normal position (boots AIX off hard disk)
- booting with key in service position (boots into diagnostic menu)
- both of the above with pushing 5 and/or F5 on terminal keyboard after switching on (has no effect on the above outcomes).

Thanks
Rowan

The 39H does not support 5.2, 5.1 is your limit.
