Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/11.X/PHCO_25916

Symptoms:
	PHCO_25916:
	During uninstall of JFS 3.3, changes made to /etc/inittab
	since installation of JFS 3.3 are lost.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_25916:
	The postremove script for the JFS.JFS-BASE-KRN fileset was
	written incorrectly. To remove the entry for vxenablefs in
	/etc/inittab, postremove was written to overwrite the
	current /etc/inittab with a copy of /etc/inittab saved
	during installation.
