You don't need a portname if your OSAs are at a certain microcode level or if none of the OSes sharing the OSA are z/OS (I think that z/OS still cares about the portname parm for some important reason related to sysplexes). I would think that a z9BC should be above that ucode level, but you might check that out. > Is there a newer released version of CentOS for > s390x?

Sounds like your filesystem may also have gotten corrupted along the way -- does a fsck on the root filesystem show anything that might need fixing? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
