Try excluding the FBA driver from the initrd. The order in which they get loaded will determine which driver picks up the DIAG disks.

I can't seem to. I do this: 1) Create a VDISK in my PROFILE EXEC with 'SWAPGEN 101 524288 (DIAG' 2) Install SLES9 and specify "Set DIAG ON" in the DASD Disk Management YaST panel 3) Add dasd_diag_mod to /etc/sysctrl/kernel, run mkinitrd and zipl. After rebooting I get 101 as a swap space and see dasd_diag_mod loaded, but apparently it is still using the FBA driver: # lsmod | grep dasd dasd_fba_mod 17408 2 dasd_eckd_mod 66560 4 dasd_diag_mod 17152 0 dasd_mod 79932 9 dasd_fba_mod,dasd_eckd_mod,dasd_diag_mod # cat /proc/dasd/devices 0.0.0100(ECKD) at ( 94: 0) is dasda : active at blocksize: 4096, 546840 blocks, 2136 MB 0.0.0101(FBA ) at ( 94: 4) is dasdb : active at blocksize: 512, 524288 blocks, 256 MB 0.0.0102(ECKD) at ( 94: 8) is dasdc : active at blocksize: 4096, 54000 blocks, 210 MB Thanks.
