I'd be happy if I could just get FBA to work.

Could it be that the dasd_fba_mod (or dasd_diag_mod) is not in the
initrd? You might need to add it in /etc/sysconfig/kernel
INITRDMODULES and run mkinitrd and
Could it be that you just might need to refer to /dev/dasdb instead of
/dev/dasdb1? You don't have any partitions on it after executing that CMS
EXEC snippet.

I am using the command dasdfmt -b 4096 -y -f /dev/dasda to attempt to format
the DASD. I have 151-155 3390 disk attached as MDISK. 151 is 100 cylinders
to be used as the /boot. The other 4 are mod2 MDISK 152 3390 0001 2225.
I get several error messages when attempting this, but the really odd
John,
I have tried everything except doing a ICKDSF CP format.
Is this what is needed?
I would guess yes.
If you do a cat /proc/dasd/devices, does /dev/dasdb come up in a state
of unknown? I've run into this from time to time and that is when a
CPFMTXA FORMAT will solve the problem. It
I mounted the .iso's with loopback, and then copied them to the directory of
my choosing.

Hi,
we have had the 'network disappear' problem for 3 times. I was told by ibm that
this can occur when using more than 1 virtual cpu (this was true in our case).
Our single cpu systems ran without this problems.
There is still an open APAR VM63685 for this kind of problems. A fix is to set
John,
One of the annoying little(?) bugs that pops up on a regular occasion is
that when the installation system is loading the DASD driver, insmod takes
an error and dies midway through. It usually gets reported as being
rmmod.old and not insmod, though. Usually, just rebooting again (or again
I am in the process of trying what Michael suggested.
From all indications this should work..

If you're interested in testing, please download it and let me know how it

What directory structure did you use? /mnt/cd1 /mnt/cd2 /mnt/cd3 ???

I updated the document I wrote about this on:

Anyone running WCS 5.4 (SLES7) on z/VM 5.1? We recently migrated from z/VM

Mark, thanks. Taking the CMS RESERVE out did the trick.
Now since I am a novice, my intentions are to have a

group. Can you point me in the right direction as to
how to do this?

Before I go and spend a lot of time on this, I figured I would ask first
(this time). Can anybody identify which of the 2.6 patches on
developerWorks are _not_ in the 2.6.10 kernel source? I know that xip2fs
was added recently, but I'm not at all sure which ones still need to be
added on top of
John,
You're not going to be able to do that as part of the install. You'll need
to install the system, then create LVM file spaces, and then migrate the
