Tony,

He is apparently running some startup script that has a "say 'Boot Linux?'" in 
it's PROFILE EXEC.  The question is: what does it do next?  Did he change 
device addresses, if he's booting from a DEVNO-defined virtual disk?  If he has 
install media, he can boot from that, then try to rescue the installation.  The 
steps involved there are a bit much for a forum, though.  I usually mount the 
errant disk on another system, chroot to that system, then investigate.  This 
isn't an exercise for novices.


Thanks,

Sam

Subject: Suse failed boot after move to new DS8000

I am helping a customer move his 6.3 system to a new DS8000. We moved all the 
dasd using DDR. After the copy, his LNXADMIN (SUSE) user will not boot.

He says he logs onto the guest and when it asked 'boot linux?', he replies 'Y' 
and nothing seems to happen.

I am not really familiar with zLinux. Is there anything that needs to be done 
special to make it moveable by DDR?
