I was just messing about with the vmur utility from the s390 tools, and I was wondering: has anyone attempted to punch a kernel, initrd + param file directly from (a suitably privileged) linux guest into another guests' reader? It'd be a nifty provisioning trick: generate the appropriate param file to do a kickstart install, then punch all the above to a new linux guest and 'vmcp xautolog <linuxguest> ipl 0C' it. Do all this directly from the NFS server I keep the OS images on. I'm curious because it doesn't look like vmcp allows me to specify a fixed record length - I can specify separator and padding bytes with the "vmur punch --blocked" option, but that doesn't really sound like what's required here. I'll continue to play around with this, but does anyone have any thoughts? Thanks! - -- Pat -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAksxix8ACgkQNObCqA8uBsweLwCgkjjqQV6nG0Pe0JDVOGqYsWeh 97UAnjOImkBuGIlyi0wh0zG+Ug5SqMId =x9F3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
