Has anyone tried installing 1st level from an FTP server? (Our machine

from the FTP server. Then maybe just run DVDPRIME? But does the RAM
image have the 22CC and 2CF1 disks to be loaded?
Follow the first-level DVD installation instructions. The only difference
is that you have set up the HMC to associate the mass storage media
service with a remote FTP server instead of the local DVD drive. In a
first-level install, VM doesn't know (or care) that the data is coming
from an FTP server.
The Appendix H or thereabouts of the HMC book contains information on how
to configure the mass storage device to use a remote FTP server.
