I think you may be right about this. My goal is to install Debian on the System Z. As the System Z is complete new thing to me, I try to fix the problems in the domain I'm more confortable with that is Debian. But isn't it just download files from http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/etch/main/installer-s390/current/images/generic/, upload files to the CMS, and then type debian? I'm curious about what am I doing wrong about the initrd and Debian etch. Ideas? Thanks again! Peter -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
