Unfortunately this seems to be a feature of the scsi load mechanism. The boot configuration sections are still there, but it never puts up an actual menu to allow for dynamic selection. A target boot configuration can still be selected via the cp "set loaddev" command, ex: set loaddev bootprog 2 ipl a100 But the user has to know ahead of time which configuration matches which bootprog number. If it helps any, it is possible to write a rexx script based on the boot menu that you put in zipl.conf to query user input. Then have it run the loaddev bootprog command to set the correct number before doing the ipl. For an LPAR scsi load the bootprog number corresponds to the "Boot program selector" entry field. - Mark Ver office: Building 710 / Room 2-RF-10 phone: (845) 435-7794 [tie 8 295-7794] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
