There is now a rapid installation of SAP on System i. It is called KOBI project tape image. What happens is that the System i developer team in Walldorf installs SAP in their machine and save the entire systsem into a tape media and send it to the implementor for use. All i5/OS PTFs and SAP Kernel patches are also applied to the most update level for you.
I just used two KOBI tapes (one for PRD, the other for DEV+QAS) to restore for my customer last week and it worked fine. Contact your local IBM System i unit on this.
