The program status word(PSW) is >00000000000000000000000000000000 - ( 32 zeroes). >Any inputs ? The psw and looping would indicate that zeros have been loaded into the first 4K or memory. When the boot loader branches to memory, an a zero psw is loaded, an interrupt occurs, a zero interrupt handler psw is loaded which then causes the recursive looping (reloading of the same zero psw). How are you building your system? from tape or cd? If tape, what tape drives? I think that I'm one of the few that actually use LPARs, but I tend to build my LPAR systems under VM because that is better tested and most often used. I found tape build was combersome. I assume that you have a SuSE License - I would report the problem to SuSE ASAP. ===== Jim Sibley RHCT, Implementor of Linux on zSeries "Computer are useless.They can only give answers."
