I apologize-- I misread your note thinking you were trying to run RHEL 6.1. RHEL 6.10 should be supported on z13s. I'm afraid I don't have an answer to your issue & hope someone else does.

According to the following sources, RHEL 6.6 or later is required to run on a z13s. https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/linux-ibm-z-tested-platforms https://access.redhat.com/ecosystem/hardware/2180941 I appears all versions of RHEL 8.x and SLES 11 SP3 or higher are supported on z13s and that's probably why you were able to IPL them. Try RHEL 6,6 or later and see if that will IPL.

When I try to IPL off of the ISO it fails with: LOADPARM=[ ] Using virtio-scsi. SCSI CD-ROM detected. ! Cannot IPL this ISO image ! When I try to do a direct kernel IPL it fails with: panic s390: core='0' psw-mask='0x0002000180000000' psw-addr='0x000000000002876e' reason='disabled-wait' I've been able to IPL the RHEL 8 ISO and I've been able to do a direct kernel IPL of the SLES 11 SP4 installer. Any suggestions on why RHEL 6.10 won't IPL?
