Works! Works just fine on 31-bit. (And you already tested 64.)
I was able to switch root volumes in a pinch with
ipl 1b0 clear parm root=/dev/dasdc
where my default parm file would have the *effect* of
ipl 1b0 clear parm root=/dev/dasdb
I was delighted to see that the appeneded PARM
overrode the preceeding parameters, but expected as much!
In other words, my /proc/cmdline with the PARM override now contains
dasd=1b0-1bf,2b0-2bf,190-19f,319 root=/dev/dasdb ro noinitrd root=/dev/dasdc
So the latter "root=" takes precedence. This is FANTASTIC.
