HP 9000 "Nova" I-class systems

The system came with no hard drives, no media, and the 4mm tape and
CD-ROM were
disconnected from the SCSI chain. I was able to get the thing put back
together,
and I finally got a copy of HP-UX 11.0, but when I try
to boot off the CD (boot 52.2.0.0), it says "Bad LIF magic." I'm told
this means the media is not
bootable.

So my question is... how does one install HP-UX if the CD is not
bootable?

        What's your question (I support several of these boxes..an 827,
a G40
        and an H70).
