Rick, what does "stuck in DIAG 308 reboot land" mean?  Is the rebooting
not working or is it rebooting when it should not be?  Hercules has code
to support DIAG 308.  If there is a problem with DIAG 308 itself, that
should be posted on the Hercules list.

However, it sounds more like there is something causing the reboot to
occur.  The Hercules list might be able to assist you in figuring that
out.  The ultimate fix might need to come from the folks here once the
root cause of the problem is understood.

What build logic were you re-inserting and why?

folks --


Maybe someone can give me a tip
and advise me what I'm doing wrong.
Have tried off and on for quite a while now to re-visit
Linux on Hercules and consistently get stuck in DIAG 308 reboot land.
I have tried both home-grown kernels and distributed kernels.
Have used INITRD and statically compiled-in disk drivers.
The result is the same: before /sbin/init runs, reboot gets called.


One of our colleagues on this list suggested that I take a CVS
snap-shot of the current Herc tree.  Did that.  No joy.  (Some amount
of twiddling to re-insert the build logic, but am confident that is
correct.)  I've gone back and tried older Hercules builds.  No joy.


I have tried both 64-bit and 31-bit kernels.  Same thing.


Thoughts?
