Hi. From information I have gathered from this list I tried to clone a sles 9 system (lpar no VM). When I log in to the system and try to update a file I get a message that it is read-only. When I booted this system I see messages VFS: Mounted root (reiserfs filesystem) readonly Trying to move old root to /initrd . . . failed Unmounting old root Here are the steps I followed Shut down source linux system which uses dasd 43e and 43f Use VSE to fastcopy full volumes to another two dasd addresses 186 and 187 (3390-3) IPL source linux system chccwdev -e 0.0.0186 and chccwdev -e 0.0.0187 lsdasd command to see that 186 is dasdc and 187 is dasdd mount /dev/dasdc1 /mnt chroot /mnt edit /etc/zipl.conf changing the parmfile dasd addresses from 43e and 43f to 186 and 187 ed /etc/hosts rename /etc/sysconfig/hardware hwcfg-dasd-bus-ccw-0.0.043e to .0186 and .043f to .0187 zipl exit out of chroot unmount /mnt chccwdev -d 0.0.0186 and 0187 logout If anyone can point out my fatal readonly flaw I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance from a very green newbie!
