Make sure that this Linux guest is not one of your "real" guests.  Class E
is powerful stuff.

You can't load a DCSS until it is saved.  I've never worked with the DCSS
driver before, but try issuing a CP SAVESEG SHRUSR in a virtual machine
that DOES overlap the DCSS.  It will have garbage in it, but that's ok.
Then, in Linux, add the DCSS, set the attribute to exclusive-writable,
fill it, then save it as shown in the doc.  At that point you can reload
it as shared.

I see the documentation is a little light on how to work with the driver.
I'll let the authors know.
