I think I am going to have problems with using a minidisk..
I have my minidisk setup as follows
VOLUME USERID CUU DEVTYPE START END SIZE
LXBOOT ZVMLINX1 0300 3390 00000 00199 00200
200 200 1 GAP
ZVMLINX3 0300 3390 00201 00400 00200
401 401 1 GAP
ZVMLINX4 0300 3390 00402 00601 00200
602 602 1 GAP
ZVMLINX5 0300 3390 00603 00802 00200
803 803 1 GAP
ZVMLINX6 0300 3390 00804 01003 00200
1004 1004 1 GAP
ZVMLINX7 0300 3390 01005 01204 00200
1205 1205 1 GAP
ZVMLINX2 0300 3390 01206 01405 00200
1406 1406 1 GAP
ZVMLINX8 0300 3390 01407 01606 00200
Where each of the 200cyls are a linux
So how would I boot the mp2003 from zvmlinx5 (minidisk start 603)///
