Thanks for the responses to my problem below... fortunately it was resolved by issuing the following cmd; #cp vi vmsg 1 dasd=100 root=/dev/dasdd1 on the 3270 session as the linux instance was booting up. "I have built a SLES10 instance under z/VM 5.2 and had it up and running successfully and have now had to move it and restore to a different processor / disk subsystem. When I ipl it now I get the following msg; Loading jbd Loading ext3 Waiting for device /dev/disk/by-id/ccw-IBM.75000000029391.070e.46-part1 to appear: ..............................not found -- exiting to /bin/sh £ " Thanks Graeme Westerman Atos Origin
