Thanks all for your online response. Thanks to LRS for bouncing questions off of the noggin. That opened my eyes. The answer is the LINK/MDISK statements all went from "0000 END" I changed it to "0001 end" and successfully IPL'ed from the volume.
Thanks all once again, Thanks LRS -----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Nielsen Sent: Tuesday, June 20, 2006 09:54 To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: Linux IPL volume FYI, you can look up wait state codes in the "CP Messages and Codes" manual, using the wait state code as the HCP message number (eg. HCP232). This is the code you get when the device address you IPL'd does not have an IPLable program on it.
