Can I remove /usr/sys/inst.images

Question:

Env:
  AIX 3.2.5
  RISC 320

Desc:
  Can I remove /usr/sys/inst.images

Action:
  The customer wants to remove this directory it takes up
  about 800mb.  In this directory are only installp format
  files and a .toc file.  I had the customer backup it
  up and remove it.  In older systems if the customer asked
  for a pre-installed system they would put the install
  images in /usr/sys/inst.images.  A practice not performed
  at 3.2.5.  Most customers will also put there installp
  images in this directory to either server themselves
  or other systems (network install server NFS mount it)
  The point being made is the system WILL NOT crash with
  out this directory, so if needed can be removed
  
Next Action:
  Closing with customer approval
