Only a compliment:
With a z10 and zVM 5.4, you need a new processor but not a new LPAR.
See, from manual CP Planning and Administration version 5 release 4:
"Specialty Processors Enhancement
z/VM provides support for a new Processor Resource/Systems Manager logical
partition mode of operation: z/VM.
In a z/VM mode logical partition, ICF (Internal Coupling Facility) and IFL
(Integrated Facility for Linux) specialty processors can be configured in
addition to processor types of CP (Central Processor), zAAP (IBM System z™
Application Assist Processor), and zIIP (IBM System z9® Integrated
Information Processor and IBM System z10™ Integrated Information
Processor).

So, the zOS and zLinux(IFL) can now run on the same LPAR under VM.
Good luck.

Yes, I am afraid you do....z/Os simply will not IPL on an IFL processor.
