SLES initial installation on IBM z890
Hello listers, I´m trying to install SLES 10.1 in a LPAR / z890. During the system loading from HMC CD-ROM I get: Could not find the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 Installation Source. Anyone has some information on this? Is it a distribution error?

No. For System z the DVD reader is only usable to IPL the LPAR. It cannot be accessed by the Linux operating system to finish the install. You will need a network installation server. If you have z/VM, we have a pre-built installation server that you can download and restore to disk.

Ok, I´ll track this way (tomorrow). It´s strange all the documentation present CD-ROM TAPE options. Thank you very much again.

Thank you very much again. That's correct, but that only gets you to the point of activating the network so that you can access the rest of the installation files.
