About the only thing I can suggest is: - Does the system activity display show any activity? - Can you display the PSW periodically and see where in System.map the address falls? - Perhaps you could try to generate the kernel with CONFIG_IPL_TAPE=y instead of CONFIG_IPL_VM=y

This is LPAR MODE. IPL completes successfully but no console messages. Sanity check: It's ok to run RedHat 7.2 31bit mode on a z800 right?? I migrated the linux system from MP3000 internal disk to a new Shark F20... and I connected both the mp3000 and the new z800 to the shark for data migration. Just to make sure I copied the redhat system ok (and modified the boot parmfile etc. for new device addrs)... I IPLed the system (using the MP3000 off of the shark DASD and it boots OK from the MP3000 !! So...why am I not getting console msgs on the z800 HMC? I have stripped down the CHPIDs for the RedHat LPAR to nothing but the shark disks and a bustech device for IP, so I know that's not the problem. I also get the same symptom when I IPL from the HMC CDROM..using an SLES8 31bit dist. Any ideas???????
