Could it be that the dasd_fba_mod (or dasd_diag_mod) is not in the

Yup, that worked.

Subject: VDISK swap on SLES9 and the FBA vs. DIAG driver
Has anyone gotten VDISK swap spaces to use the DIAG driver on SLES-9? I
can't seem to.

Has anyone gotten VDISK swap spaces to use the DIAG driver on SLES-9? I

I do this:
1) Create a VDISK in my PROFILE EXEC with 'SWAPGEN 101 524288 (DIAG'
2) Install SLES9 and specify "Set DIAG ON" in the DASD Disk Management
YaST panel
3) Add dasd_diag_m
rd --preload jbd --preload ext3 --preload dasd_diag_mod
initrd-2.4.21-4.EL.img `uname -r`
Then if you create the vdisk swap using SWAPGEN with the (DIAG option and
set up the swap space in fstab, I believe Linux will pick up the right
module. I am unable to test fully at this time.
Hope this helps.

Hunh. Are you running SWAPGEN with the ( FBA option? If so, don't do
that--FBA is if you don't want the DIAG driver.
If you run with FBA, you want:

To amplify that a little: the whole reason we created SWAPGEN was so
