The Console confirmation for RH was opened by me some time back as I recall the reply was it's a VM issue and only occurs if the DASD is not formatted Not DASDFMT but CMS formatted or CPFMTXA if a full pack it's really only looking for a non-blank cyl 0 if I recall so all i write something there

The point was, it's not documented, along with a lot of other behaviors unique to the z platform. As I said, the kickstart doc is Intel-centric, and doesn't cover z very well. That makes it tricky to set up and maintain. I notice no one ever responded on my issue about it prompting the console for confirmation when the disk has been formatted but not partitioned. I suppose I should open an issue for that, but it's not a big priority at the moment. -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:linux-...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of John Summerfield Sent: Saturday, June 13, 2009 7:53 PM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [LINUX-390] To kick or to clone ... that is the question Hall, Ken (GTS) wrote: > > "Reboot" triggers a reboot, but from where?

Where ever the system is set to boot from. On Intellish system, it's whatever the boot device is set is to. Except that, from what Brad said, it _might_ be different on z, not by design but by crude hack.
