Yes, it is. Just use fdasd.
There is a menu entry "v change volume serial", which does the job.
Sure, fdasd will complain that your disk is in use and you could
heavily damage your system, in case you do not know,

If the disk is unmounted, fdasd -l can be used. If it is mounted, fdasd
throws nasty error messages like
WARNING: Your DASD '/dev/dasda' is in use.
If you proceed, you can heavily damage your system.
I go to do a SLES8 update in YAST and this URL is asking for an user and

Hi David,
the prototype implementation for kernel in NSS, that has been usable in
2.4.x. kernel series, does not work
at the moment. Even with 2.4.x. kernel, I would not recommend to use it in
production environments. The
system dump tools do not work with NSS at the moment, and the usability is

Hello Patrick,
first of all: I'm a technician, not a sales person and thus I do not
have all information on the scope and prerequisites of support
contracts. But since this is a chance to answer some frequently asked
