Daniel,
This worked for me:
Install with devices 200-206.
After first boot, I updated /etc/zipl.conf and added
"dasd=200-209,300-31f " to the parameters line, prceeding root=
Ran   /sbin/zipl -c /etc/zipl.conf
Shutdown.
Updated the zLinux guest directory with minidisks at 300, 30F, 310-312.
Booted.
cat /proc/dasd/devices   had
300 as dasdk, 30F as dasdz, 310 as dasdaa, 311 as dasdab and 312 as dasdac
There were no entries for the addresses that had no minidisks,
example:  301 at 94:  44 is dasdl  : unknown

mkinitrd appears to add the dasd devices as they appear in alphabetical
order of /sys/block.

Which means dasda, dasdaa, dasdab, dasdac, dasda* before dasdb, dasdc,
etc.

Is anyone else using SLES9 that, after install time, added more devices
to put you over 26?

Thanks,
~ Daniel
