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
Smells to me like it's reading its IPL record from 2300 but expects its
root filesystem to be on 230A, which is what that kernel parameter line
wants, K being the 10th letter of the alphabet. Which suggests further
that the parameter line *on* 2300 says that 230A is the root device;
where 2300 is mounted, if anywhere, I dunno.
