Heh, with Levanta we had the startup scripts (in Linux) swap the CMS 190 in for the Linux IPL device. That way you could do a 'shutdown -r' and it would reIPL CMS, go through the Levanta setup (which would swap the devices back), and then reIPL Linux. As you say, "one-size-fits-all won't work" -- there's always a cleverer idiot! ...phsiii
