When you installed you SLES 10 system, you took the defaults for FSTAB.
Change you base system:
yast
System
Partitioner, yes
edit each disk
fstab options
change Device ID to Device Path, ok
ok
apply
quit
Then:
In one session:
cat /etc/fstab
In another session
joe /etc/zipl.conf
modify the parameters = “root=~~~~~
may be in multiple places
save
mkinitrd
zipl
Boot to put in effect
Now flashcopy will produce a bootable copy.
Now reclone your system.

I do mean root file system. Here is my zipl.conf. I don't see any
device
address in this file.

By IPL volume, do you mean root file system? (The two are completely
