You cannot install AIX on i386 or any intel processor, or on any level of VMware.

AIX 5.3 will only install on an IBM rs6000 or pSeries system.

Smile hellow
first: you can't installed the aix operting system in i386 platform!

the big problue is CPU, aix's CPU must be PPC platform and the bootloader is U-BOOT,so we can't use i386.


second: you can use "Virtutech.Simics" software to try install a PPC platform to install the aix env,but it is not good job ,try your hard way!

good good study ! day day up! hay hay
