I have this problem in the old days when using FDR backup VM DASDs when
Cylinder zero is not formatted... Most likely the problem is in FDR
I use VMBACKUP to backup all LINUX volumes.

I run SuSE SLES 8 under ZVM 5.1 in an IFL. The DASD are in a SAN that is
also accessed by ZOS. Backups are taken by ZOS using FDR full volume
copies on Saturday morning (low usage). When I restore a backup, it will
not boot. The backup and the restore have the same byte counts. Linux
support at MainLine Systems tells me that he has seen this before at
other customers. What is everyone using for Linux under ZVM backups?
HELP! My backups are no good!
