You can install 1 VIOS from HMC (image repository), and then create the 
other as gest to the 1st VIOS, but you must be quite sure this works. 
Any small network issue and you are in big trouble.

With a DVD drive you can ask your H&E to insert the media and that's it.

Haven't tried with USB thumb drive, but I don't feel comfortable using 
them. I still remember first Storwize with SPECIAL usb pen drives, and 
HMCs with STEC pen drives...
