I did a major boob!

I was creating some LVM under Linux SLES 9 on a z/VM machine.

I ran the mkinitrd  and zipl commands after updating the /etc/zipl.conf. 

I incorrectly updated the dasd=  entry in the zipl.conf file parameters 
string.

It should have been dasd=100-106 but I set it to 101-106.

This seems to have moved the offset for the devices such that at boot time 
it gets an incorrect blocksize on the root=/dev/dasdb1 

Is there anyway I can overlay this parameter at Linux boot time.

Thanks.
