Does anyone know what I did wrong here. DDR'd new SLES10 -sp1 system and now receive the following IPL errors.. After the DDR I correctly relabel
the pack to reflect its real addr as usual, define the pack to another
guest machine and modify the mdisk to match the original. This time it does not work. I took the SLES defaults for installation for storage Device names. If I knew if this info was in a Yast log I could try to find it, if
it would help.

SLES10, stupidy, chooses its filesystems by disk-ID.

This is no good if you want to clone, because you will end up with different real underlying IDs on your disk.

Waiting for /dev/disk/by-id/ccw-IBM.75000000029217.2500.2e-part1

Convert the basic system to use a different scheme that IS OK to use across different disks (I like to use by-path, as I tend to use the same device address conventions on all guests), change zipl.conf and / etc/fstab to reflect that scheme, rerun zipl/mkinitrd, and then clone the resulting system.
