    standard?

    What I typically do is to create a mksysb with a modified /image.data and
    then use that mksysb to reload the box. Take a look at the man pages of
    mkszfile, image.data, and mksysb.

    I recall seeing a procedure for doing this but that's years ago so who knows
    where it is now.
