unfortunately i never got around to finish this very same little project :-/ But from what i gathered you'd need the same set of software packages for LPM that you'd need for DLPAR operations. I started with this list: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/lnxinfo/v3r0m0/index.jsp?topic=%2Fliaae%2Fiphazinstallsuse11hmc.htm https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/set2/sas/f/lopdiags/suselinux/hmcmanaged/sles11.html and began to convert the RPMs to .deb with alien. Unfortunately there was quite a list of patches that came out of this work, because not all the RPM pre-/post-scripts or rc.d-scripts work out of the box for Debian. I got as far as being able to see the correct OS version in the HMC and being able to do DLPAR operations, but sometimes the DLPAR operations would fail, leaving the partition profile and the OS inside the partition with different configuration states. There would have been need for further investigation on the DLPAR issue, but this is where i left the whole thing off due to lack of time :-( I'd figure from there on you'd only need a kernel being able to be suspended and you'd be good to go ...
