Hi,

   I've found William Sculley's basevol/guestvol approach to be fairly
simple to set up.  It's too bad that I goofed somewhere, as I can't get
past my read-only root volume problems (with initrd).  If I can get past
this problem, the setup looks extremely promising (i.e., cloned images
would only need 150cyl R/W minidisks as a starting minimum).

   Has anyone else run into problems with R/O root disks?  Something in
initrd wants that disk R/W.  Adam suggested changing the parmline to
something like "DASD=150(ro), ..." but once that is done, you lose the
ability to update the basevol root disk (or a copy of it).

Many thanks,
Arty
