Mike,
See Vic Cross' note of last night explaining the "mknod" command. You'll
need to run that command about 260 times to get /dev names ("nodes") for
all major and minor pairs for the 65 DASD units that don't appear. You've
only got /dev nodes for 26 DASD units: you need to create the other 65 (4
times each ... once for the base device and 3 times for each partition).
The "mknod" command is what makes those /dev names appear.
I saw a suggestion for a script earlier in this thread which just _might_
work for the base and #1 partition ... that could make things a little less
painful.

Thanks,
I am know about the major and minor numbers, and based on what appears in (
cat /proc/dasd/devices) listing all are correct. The major number start
with 94:0 thru 94:252 then 254:0 thru 254:104 incremented by 4, with is
254:104 being device dasdcm. This covers dasd address 0750 - 07aa for 91
devices. The /etc/zipl.conf has the proper parameter in it
(parameters="dasd=0750-07aa root=/dev/dasda2'), but not all of the devices
appear in the /dev directory. It only shows dasda-dasdz
