Hi Sergey, FWIW, I had NUMEROUS problems trying to get zipl to accept command line parameters with the /etc/zipl.conf file in place. I could ONLY get zipl to work properly by renaming/deleting the zipl.conf file and THEN zipl accepted my command line parameters. Try it that way, I'll bet it will work for you. :)

Can you give me example? I can't find, how can i say to zipl boot device. I try to use zilo, but i got some strange errors like "this file on disk 94/0 insteed of 94/24". 94/0 - my root, 94/24 - my new disk, i think. WBR, Sergey
