mksles9root setup problem

I need another set of eyes Bionic ones would be nice. Anyway, I'm using the mksles9root.sh from http://linuxvm.org/Patches/S390/mksles9root.sh which should be the current one. I have the 3 s390x SP3 images in the same directory as the install iso images: -rw-r--r-- 1 suse9 users

Tom, There is obviously something else wrong. You could do a sh -x ./mksles9root.sh -m s390x and see all that is going on. That may be a lot of output. You could also add an echo statement near the bottom after the line mk_directory_structure $spLevel such as: echo mounts = $mount, spLevel =

Ok, looks like I got the path wrong in that symlink. The one that actualy works and lets me install packages (and correctly resolves dependencies) is core9/CD1/suse. Cheers - Tex Brendan Kelly Senior z/OS Linux IT Specialist Open

We had some trouble after doing a minimal install of SLES9 s390x getting yast (or yast2) to install additional packages that were on different CDs. After some trial and error (and trolling through apache logs) I discovered for s390x (not s390) you need a symlink from the root installation

The key is: What directory are you running mksles9root in? i.e. where is it trying to build the mksles9root directory? If you're trying to create it in the same place, then it will complain; If you try to do it in another place, you may have better luck. -- Robert P. Nix Mayo

It might be that simple, but it shouldn't be needed. Because mksles9root creates a directory struction with the subdirectory starting with s390 or s390x. If I'm in /data1, I should be able to run mksles9root s390 and it would create /data1/s390/... and I should also be able to run mksles9root
