Re: zipl question
Mark, You were giving me the answer all the time. I was so sure I was IPLing from the correct device. I had an IPLable image on two disks and didn't realize I was booting from the wrong one.

Re: zipl question
Betsie, That was just a test to make sure zipl wasn't picking up parameters from somewhere else. It apparently is not, so you can rename it back. I guess I'd still like to know... are you sure you are booting from the same DASD volume as /boot is on?

Re: zipl question
Mark, I renamed /etc/zipl.conf and got an error message telling me that it could not access configuration file /etc/zipl.conf and that a target directory was not specified on the command line or in a config file. I added 'noinitrd' to the parm file but it made no difference. Does this have anything to do with the s390-tools or s390-utils?

Re: zipl question
'strace zipl.conf' gave me strace: zipl.conf: command not found when I did, "strace /sbin/zipl", I got a display similar to yours. It pointed to /etc/zipl.conf and /boot/parmfile. Both had the same "dasd=" string but neither matched the dasd used in the "Kernel command line" shown at boot time or from dmesg.

Not at all. It shows me what files are accessed, etc., etc. Works great for the intended purpose.

Subject: zipl question
Hi,
On SuSE, I force a new zipl parm by
/sbin/zipl -c /etc/zipl.conf
what is the equivalent in RedHat? The above command doesn't seem to use the
/etc/zipl.conf file. Where does the boot process get the kernel command line
in RH?
