You still need the DASDFMT. The RESERVE only kept the whole disk for LINUX
to use; still a CMS function only.

Hi Folks,
Sorry for the basic question - but I'm just starting to use CMS RESERVED
minidisks instead of raw DASD for Linux/390 (well, at least for the /usr
and
/data areas - I'm keeping "/" on "raw" DASD for the time being). I have
formatted and reserved a large minidisk and made it available to my RedHat
7.2 system R/W. During the install process (around the "disk druid" parts
where it starts working with the disk) RedHat didn't like the CMS RESERVED
minidisks - it liked the raw DASD Ok and proceeded to format it.
Once a disk has been formatted and reserved under CMS - you don't need to
DASDFMT it under Linux, do you? Just mke2fs?
-Thanks in advance.
