To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: Re: SuSE 8 Installation problem on z800 Hard wait code 000F usually means that the volume does not have any IPL text on it. Are you sure that you got the zipl correct? That's where I'd look first. We thought that was the problem. We checked. Our consultant tells us that the first of the volumes (0x2300) should be the IPL device. He was not sure about the load parameter. What goes into the load parameter? Is it something to do specifically with Linux? -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Applications & Solutions Team +1.817.255.3225 This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its' content is protected by law.
