Hi,

I want to do a linux dump with the dump tool.... well first of all I prepared a dasd 
(/dev/dasdj1), after that I tried to do an zipl, which results in an error.

I formatted the dasd in ldl and cdl with no change... I tried to do zipl dump_eckd and 
I tried zipl -d /dev/dasdj1.... no change.

How to I have to prepare the dasd?

regards,
  - Tim -



lxchr002:/ # dasdfmt -b 4096 -f /dev/dasdj
Drive Geometry: 3338 Cylinders * 15 Heads =  50070 Tracks

I am going to format the device /dev/dasdj in the following way:
   Device number of device : 0x209
   Labelling device        : yes
   Disk label              : VOL1
   Disk identifier         : 0X0209
   Extent start (trk no)   : 0
   Extent end (trk no)     : 50069
   Compatible Disk Layout  : yes
   Blocksize               : 4096
