Judging from the data found in the bugtracker, this sounds more like a setup problem: > Configuration is a 125 cylinder /dev/dasda1, which is to be mounted > as /boot, and a large /dev/dasdb1 which is to be mounted as /. > df: Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on > df: tmpfs 257928 80 257848 0% /dev > df: tmpfs 257928 80 257848 0% /dev > df: tmpfs 257928 80 257848 0% /.dev > df: /dev/dasda1 5781776 557576 4930500 10% /target DF shows that /dev/dasda1 is >5G while a dasd with 125 cylinder should be around 80-90MB. Example for a correct setup: /dev/dasda1 mount as /boot device number 1000 /dev/dasdb1 mount as / device number 1001 -> Kernel command line: dasd=1000-1001 root=/dev/dasdb1 /etc/fstab contents: /dev/dasda1 /boot /dev/dasdb1 / Regards, Peter -- Peter Oberparleiter Linux on System z Development IBM Deutschland Entwicklung GmbH - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-s390" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
