I just had someone ask me for AIX 4.3.3 media; I used to have it, but the disks got thrown out a couple of years ago when we moved between buildings.

DESCRIPTION
livemedia-creator uses Anaconda, kickstart and Lorax to create bootable media that use the same install path as a normal system install. It
can be used to make live isos, bootable (partitioned) disk images and filesystem images for use with virtualization.
The general idea is to use virt-install to install into a disk image and then use the disk image to create the bootable media.
livemedia-creator --help will describe all of the options available. At the minimum you need:
--make-iso to create a final bootable .iso --iso to specify the Anaconda install media to use with virt-install --ks is the kickstart to
use to install the system
