Well, then I guess I need to ask how many files you have in your virtual reader. If a "cp change rdr all keep nohold" command got issued, the starter files don't get purged when read. If you've still got the original three at the top of the queue, the system will never see the newer versions you punch out.

If it is an LPAR, then he only gets 1 876-byte record. Also, only Red Hat supports these additional parameters, SUSE does not.

Larry -----Original Message----- From: Steve Gentry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 05, 2004 07:53 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: the .PRM file I'm having to reload the starter linux system multiple times and am getting tired of having to re-enter the various information everytime I reboot. I know I can put this information in the .PRM file and infact have, but other than the root=/dev/ram0 ro ip=off DASD=200-20F line, I can't get the starter linux to recognize other parameter lines. I've tried putting the params in different sequences, i.e, moving the lines around. I've tried upper and/or lower case and still I have to type all the params in. Is there a double-secret flag or param or something I'm not including? I've looked at various doc and feel I'm got the .PRM file coded right. Suggestions, related to this subject, would be appreciated. Thanks, Steve Gentry Lafayette Life Ins. Co. Pax Vobiscum
