I haven't started on 6.4 yet but found this page, https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSB27U_6.4.0/com.ibm.zvm.v640.hcpa7/iplsec.htm.
I don't know if it matters but the page shows a 'set machine esa' command just before the IPL command.

So I need the SALIPL screen to change the device number. However even when I use the LOADPARM parm it goes right to the "warm,noauto, etc." prompt. This is a second level system. Here are the commands I use. SYS CLEAR TERM CONMODE 3270 IPL 3C30 CLEAR LOADPARM 009 13:51:01 13:51:01 HCPZCO6718I Using parm disk 1 on volume CV3C33 (device 3C33). 13:51:01 HCPZCO6718I Parm disk resides on cylinders 1 through 120. 13:51:01 Start ((Warm|Force|COLD|CLEAN) (DRain) (DIsable) (NODIRect) 13:51:01 (NOAUTOlog)) or (SHUTDOWN) I don't get the stand alone loader program screen.
