No. The _first_ device number presented to the kernel becomes dasda. The second becomes dasdb. It has nothing to do with what device numbers are higher or lower than others. You can have something like dasd=0150,0149,0160,0123 That will give you: 0150 = dasda 0149 = dasdb 0160 = dasdc 0123 = dasdd

If the DASD is out of order you'll have to use disk labels or persistent naming to resolve it. ks ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
