Do you have another rs6000? If so you could unplug the CD-ROM, put it in the other machine and confirm the firmware is up to date.

Or do you have another CD-ROM you could use? Does your motherboard have the internal 50pin connector, I can't see from the overview PDF?

Quote:
AIX 4.3.3 plus APAR IY06844 (AIX 4330-02 Recommended Maintenance Level for AIX 4.3.3) is required for the Model 170. The GA date is February 18, 2000.
If you are purchasing new RS/6000 systems, the AIX update should be phased in to new systems starting February 14, 2000. It will be available for download at:

In North America, you can order CDs by calling (800) 879-2755 or by ordering on the Web at http://service2.boulder.ibm.com/swdelivery/. In other geographies, ask your IBM Business Partner or IBM Representative to place a single refresh System Program Order for 5692-AIX.
For select customer requirements, there is a limited availability of AIX Version
4.3.2 support on the Model 170: PRPQ P91183, AIX 4.3.2 Workstation Support.
