Richard, > We are looking to install zlinux on a z9. This is a new z/vm installation. You may be interested in "The Virtualization Cookbook"s - books written specifically for your situation. There is one for SLES 10 and one for RHEL 5, so they are mostly up to date (SLES 10 SP1, the latest Novell/SuSE release, is not addressed but is quite similar).
The cookbooks are usually at the top of the page http://linuxvm.org/present/ but that Web Server seems to have misplaced its DocumentRoot at the moment - I hope that situation will be fixed soon. Also, the z/VM publication "Getting Started with Linux on System z9 and zSeries" may be interesting to you. It is similar but differs by assuming a directory maintenance product (DirMaint in that book) while the Virtualization Cookbooks describe manual editing of the USER DIRECT file. I see a copy on this page: http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/zos/bkserv/zvmpdf/zvm53.html "Mike MacIsaac" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (845) 433-7061
