Hi Peter I've been able to get the diag driver loaded on my failing test clone.
Did some testing using two clones (identical kernel/initrd/bootmap etc). On one, the diag driver worked as expected. On the other, it failed to load. Turns out the only difference was in zipl.conf. This fails: parameters="dasd=800,801(diag),802-83f,900-90f(diag) possible_cpus=3 root=LABEL=/" This works: parameters="dasd=800,801(diag),802-83f possible_cpus=3 root=LABEL=/" zipl may not be happy with certain types or forms of parameters? Thank you for yout interest Cheers Pat Patrick Carroll | Enterprise Architect L.L.Bean, Inc.(r) | Double L St. | Freeport ME 04033 http://www.llbean.com | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 207.552.2426 -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter 1 Oberparleiter Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2007 4:03 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Missing DIAG discipline; was RE: Linux on 390 Port <[email protected]> wrote on 26.11.2007 19:24:34: > mkinitrd -v -f --preload=dasd_mod --preload=dasd_diag_mod > initrd-2.6.9-55.0.2.E 2.6.9-55.0.2.EL I'm assuming this was just a typo but the line above would create a initrd in file initrd-2.6.9-55.0.2.E while zipl is loading > initial ramdisk...: /boot/initrd-2.6.9-55.0.2.EL.img at 0x800000 The output of mkinitrd also doesn't quite match with the boot messages. Please make sure that you're not accidently loading an outdated version of the initrd.
