    Default clone aix 4.3

    i try to clone a aix 4.3.3 from an 7043 box to a 6c1 .
    i boot from the CD :
    Start Maintenance Mode ...
    Install from System Backup ...
    as described in the ibm installation guide : cloning considerations
    but then i get the following error :

    "an invalid disk ( 04-C0-00-4,0 ) was specified in the location of the data
    file"

    when i continue to install it completes the installation from tape and cd
    but when rebooting, the system stops with LED 554 .

    what is going wrong ? do i need a diskette with bosinst.data file modified
    and if, how is it created ?

    thanks
    udo
