OK found my problem. When I uploaded initrd.img, I didn't realize I had a disk full error. My bad.
Fixed that and everything comes up. I have Fedora 15 installed. Does SWAPGEN work with this? What do you do regarding your swap partitions? I used vdisk for my swap disks and when I did a swapon, linux complained.

What problems are you having? All I did was: 1. Take 2 .img files from the website; Modified the parm file 2. Punched the files to the virtual reader of a 2GB virtual machine (it probably would've worked with <1GB) 3. IPL'd and followed the prompts (note the initrd seems much larger than in previous levels) 4. Used the VNC method of installation so I could specify the exact partitioning I wanted The /usr filesystem took up about 2.7GB using the "Web Server" template.

The only thing I've been able to find is an install using Hercules. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
