I am puzzled as to how when IPLing from 2300, Linux actually wants to boot from 230A. Somehow 230A is genned into initrd or it is remembering being IPLed from 230A sometime in the past. It is certainly saying <4>Kernel command line: dasd=2300-230F root=/dev/dasdk1 in the boot.msg I wonder where this command line is coming from? The parmfile says dasd=2300-230F root=/dev/dasda1 Mark Post -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ranga Nathan Sent: Saturday, January 08, 2005 2:52 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: ### URGENT ### Please help - Kernel panic - can not mount roo t -snip- I am not sure if there is a way to de-compile initrd to find out what it contains! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
