chccwdev -e 691-694
To have them come on at boot-
Add range to modprobe.conf and do a mkinitrd.

We are running z/VM 5.3 with Red Hat Linux 5. We have created a new

When we logon to the linux guest and issue #CP Q V DASD we get the
following output and everything looks good.

When we logon to the linux guest and issue the fdisk –l command we o
nly see one mini disk and two virtual disks as follows:
fdisk -l
Note: sector size is 4096 (not 512)
Disk /dev/dasda: 2461 MB, 2461040640 bytes
15 heads, 12 sectors/track, 3338 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 180 * 4096 = 737280 bytes
Disk /dev/dasda doesn't contain a valid partition table
Disk /dev/dasdb: 268 MB, 268435456 bytes
16 heads, 128 sectors/track, 256 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes
Disk /dev/dasdb doesn't contain a valid partition table
Disk /dev/dasdc: 536 MB, 536870912 bytes
16 heads, 128 sectors/track, 512 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes
Disk /dev/dasdc doesn't contain a valid partition table
Why are we not able to see mini-disk 0691-0694 when we issue the
fdisk –l command?
Is there some definition in Red Hat Linux 5 we need to make? Thanks
in advance for any help.
