Greetings;
You probably have devfs enabled in your kernel. I think
that is the default in 2.4.19 and probably earlier too.
You can either rebuild your kernel and disable/turn off
devfs or change your parmfile in /boot to something like
root=/dev/dasd/0100/part1 ro noinitrd dasd=0100-010f,200-20f,300-30f
and rerun zipl. You will also have to change any dev addresses
in your fstab etc. that are the old /dev/dasda1 notation.
It is a bit of a pain to make the conversion, but I personally
like the devfs notation better.
Good Luck!

Please respond to
Linux on 390 Port
I has the same problem, in my case its because the 2.4.19 kernel doesnt
use the devices at /dev/dasdxxx, instead i have /dev/dasd/xxxx/, where
xxxx is the address of the device, into the directory i have:
# ls /dev/dasd/0200/
device disc part1
"Device Drivers and Installation Commands" have more info about this.
