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.
