When using xip2 filesystem on dcss instead of dasd, /lib should be in at
least. For dasd I agree with Richard.
Adding /bin /sbin and /lib takes some set-up work but saves loading the
big-baby glibc into the memory of each guest ;).
Robert, let me point to a howto describing how to set up sharing with
dcss:
