Note: The boot image created above is specific to PA-RISC systems, and will not work on Itanium-based
systems.
Example 12
On a B.11.23 operating system, create a boot image for a Itanium-based system with the
-o option, you
would:
make_medialif -c "HP-UX B.11.23 Default"-oIA -l /var/tmp/lif_test
lifls -l /var/tmp/lif_test
This will list the contents:

WARNINGS
If
make_medialif is being used to create an image to install an archive, it is imperative that there be
consistency between the release of the archive (B.11.23 for example), the release specified in the
configuration file(s) (a line that reads release=B.11.23), and the version of SYSCMDS selected by the
-r option (-r B.11.23)ofmake_medialif. Failure to provide this consistency will lead to problems
with the installation of the archive on the client, problems when booting the installed client, or other
similar catastrophic and unrecoverable problems.
