Dave,

You should be able to create a bootable pack using Rob van der Heij's
linuxipl tool, and the Red Hat installation initrd and kernel.  Take a look
at http://pucc.princeton.edu/~rvdheij/linuxipl.html

duh...thanks that worked and my osa card is working now for the RH 2.4.9
ramdisk system.


Am I on the right track of thinking here:

In order to build my "one-pack IPL disk"
which would have:
1. The ramdisk files
2. The redhat RPMs
3. A bootstrap

....I first have to install Redhat 7.2 (2.4.9) via FTP to the Redhat
download
site,
then IPL that full 2.4.9 system to build my "on-pack IPL disk".

Reason:  the ZIPL will not be available until I do this ????
