Thank you, I was just curious how to figure out more about my number '24065'.

Please respond to

It's not an inode value. Inodes are found in file systems, they're not
device-related. The number you see is the decimal value of a two-byte
hexadecimal number. The hexadecimal number is the major and minor
numbers on the device in /dev. For example, on one of my systems,
/proc/sys/kernel/real-root-dev give me a value of 24065. Converting
that to hex, gives me 5E01. So, device number 94, 01 in /dev is my real
root device. That just happens to be /dev/dasda1.

Subject: numerical form of root file system?
Hi,
I am a bit puzzled on a trivial issue. If I cat
"/proc/sys/kernel/real-root-dev" I receive "the value of the real root
file system in numerical
form". When I display the file systems "df -i" I receive the INODE of
the root file system. They don't match. What should correlate to the
value
from /proc/sys/kernel/real-root-device? We are running SLES 9 on s/390.
Thank you, Dave H.
