It doesn't, but Linux is perfectly happy to use it once it's up to the point of having a network. > If true, you'll still > need some channel attached disk for z/VM and, I think, the z/Linux "boot" > DASD. I don't know if z/Linux under z/VM can boot from an iSCSI device. It can't, but you can use Rick Troth's R/O root device trick to get to the point where you have a network, and then pivot onto a iSCSI device as your root filesystem. A little bit tricky to set up, but works fine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
