Thank to All.
I run zipl with kernel and ramdisk. It is working only for 2.4.x kernel.
2.2.16 kernel can't find ramdisk after boot.
I had to do tape. Old way is the best way :)

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
