Hi, Thanks for all of the responses yesterday in regards to the > 26 disks question. We were working on this today, but unfortunately I updated the zipl.conf incorrectly. On the "dasd=" parameter, I added a comma after the last device range. This should have been a blank. The ZIPL was run, and no errors were reported. When the system is now booted, I can see that the kernel command line has a comma before the root statement. The system stops after mounting the root as read-only.
Is there a way of overriding the command line and inserting the correct line? Even if we update the original file, we would still be stuck since the zipl command writes it to the boot area. Do we need to bring up the RAM image and rebuild the boot area? Thanks, Ken Vance Amadeus Kernel command line: dasd=201-20a,240-243,250-253,260-263,270-273,root=/dev/dasd a1 . .
