If you have another running linux on your VM, you can do this:

shutdown the LOCKED linux
log in the RUNNING linux, and execute this:
#CP LINK LOCKED 100 1100 MW

This will link disk 100 of LOCKED as 1100 on RUNNING

In the shell, run
chccwdev -e 1100
mkdir /tmp/locked
mount /dev/dasdx /tmp/locked (assuming address 1100 has been given device
dasdx, look this at lsdasd)
now, you have the LOCKED linux filesystem at /tmp/locked, so you can access
it and edit the configuration

After that,

umount /tmp/locked
chccwdev -d 1100
#CP DET 1100

And IPL LOCKED Linux...
