AIX. Somewhere I've got a set of AIX 4.3.X CDs that I'll want to load.
(I'm presuming that even if the current drive already has an AIX on it, it
would be futile to try to get into it. Or would it ?)
QUESTION: The keyswitch is locked in the "OK" position. Can I boot from the
CD and load the OS in that position, or must I find a way to get it into the
"wrench" position ? Is there any easy way of getting around the keylock and
opening the box so I can jumper it out ? I don't care if I destroy the
keylock in the process of opening the box, but I rather not damage the box
itself.

You'll want to get it to the wrench position to boot from CD
automatically. If that is not possible, put your CD in the drive and
power up the unit. when you see the POST screen (indicated by
"speaker scsi ..." (all on the same line), hit the "1" key (or
"F1" on a graphical terminal). This should allow you to interrup the
boot process (the "SMS" menu) and boot from the CD manually.

The output below is found when I try to build GPG.
I see in ancient archives a recommendation to not bother and use a
precompiled version from Bull's archives. That is unacceptable in
this instance; the predecessor merely needed to extract some data, but
in this case, using a version with even _arguably_ dubious provenance
won't fly.

Here is the only recommendation I can find:
http://unix.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/comp.unix.aix/2003-06/0750.html
"Take a look at www.bullfreeware.com and download one of the pgp binary
installable packages. Works great on 5.1 with pki.
Good luck.
Bob"
That won't fly here; anyone have any better answers?

Two suggestions
./configure --disable-asm
or build with IBM C and not gcc.

That didn't help, unfortunately.

Not an option; can't run IBM C in the environment (for a number of
reasons).
Well, that was worth a try...
