Having a CP Owned disk that can be hold the SALPL is not mutually exclusive, as proved by the sysres. The IPL program can be there because (a) the allocation map is a small part of cylinder 0, track 0 and (b) the first two ipl records, which are only 80 bytes long, are all of the IPL program that absolutely must be on that cylinder. In reality, most of the cylinder is available for the SALPL, so that is probably where it is written.
