Yes, it has a CD drive. Do you recall what month the
discussion was so I know where to start looking in the list archive?
It sounds as if Solaris doesn't run on the 604e in the 43p/7043 (I will never
understand IBM model designations); I just want to make the system usable at this point.

Alan,
it was February last year (2018), probably Feb 1 - Feb. 3.
The short story for how to do this is presented at:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg3T1000366
I did need to obtain an IBMid to read the web page completely, and I started with a CD
labelled ?AIX V4.2.1 for 5765-C34?. As you will see if you read the thread, subject
"Password reset for ~1998 AIX on RS/6000??, other alternatives exist, but this was
all I needed.
Hope this helps! Let me know if you need any other pointers.
