AIX PS/2 boot from hard disk

Hello,

I recently installed AIX PS/2 1.1 on a model 70. Installation went
smooth, no problems. However, when I tried to reboot the machine after
the installation was completed, it just hung. I was able to boot AIX
using the boot diskette and choosing the `Boot from harddisk' option.
Assuming I made an error somewhere I installed AIX again. Same result.
`minidisks' shows the AIX partition to be bootable, as does the DOS
`fdisk' command. (There is a 32MB DOS partition on the disk, we are
running DOS Merge). I called my IBM SE who said he vaguely remembered
something about this and he would call me back. This was several weeks
ago...
Does anybody have the same problem? Any suggestions? Thanks.
