Stan:
 
My CDs were created from ISO images. The files were something like
hpux_11_0_disk1.iso.gz and hpux_11_0_disk2.iso.gz
I labeled the disks accordingly, and have tried both.
 
Haven't gotten a chance to examine the sectors yet. Will do that now
since I'm up with a horrendous case of the flu anyway. :P
 
Thanks!

	I can boot from CD ... if I use the right CD (I've had similar
	problems when putting the wrong CD in).
	
	What's your CD say on it?
	
	Also, if you can read the first few sectors of the CD on another
system,
	what do they look like?  Byte 0 should be $80, and bytes 1..3
should
	be readable ASCII.
