Loren,

You're running in 64-bit mode?  (That's what the "s390x" means.)  If you're
not, then try whatever updates are labeled as #-s390-# instead.

Subject: Updating SuSE Kernel


All,

I have a problem when I try to load the update for
Service Pack 2 for SLES8 for IBM zSeries.  I've followed
the instructions using NFS and the loopback mounts, and
either way I get an error saying:

Error
Initialization failed.  Please check that you have
inserted the correct CD.


When I try to update the kernel using the supplied rpm from
the ISO image, I get the following message:

# rpm -Uvh k_deflt-2.4.19-80.s390x.rpm
package k_deflt-2.4.19-80 is for a different architecture


We are currently running the 2.4.19-3suse-SMP kernel on a
z800-0A1 on an IFL in an LPAR.

Any help in getting this solved would be greatly appreciated.  I have also
sent this information to SuSE but they are slow to answer most times and I
need a quick answer.

TIA,
