What I don't understand is, why you have to build an initrd? Isn't it
sufficient to add the modules in /etc/modules?

Mark,
I'm glad that this worked for you (and those people here that you
obviously help). I think that RH should maybe learn from this, but seems
to me that they haven't yet. The story that I got from the FBI folks
here that are working the Linux project on the mainframe tell me that
the reason
Kevin,
it is strange, IBM should not give recommendations on
one vendor over another. We all have our preferences,
but I am strongly forbidden to tell customer which
distribution to use. The only difference is if the
support matrix shows support only for one vedor, which
happens from time to time.
Assuming that I have a workload which will run effectively in 31 bit
mode, does anybody know if it will run more efficiently in 31 bit mode
than in 64 bit mode. That is, does 64 bit mode on System z have more
overhead (either hardware or software) than 31 bit mode? Or is this
another it depends

The rest of Linux will be running 64-bit, skewing the results.

Not necessarily. Granted, the process will be running in

What I was trying to say is that a 31-bit program running on a
