Hi all,



We're trying to install Debian Lenny for s390 in IBM z890 mainframe in
a LPAR via CD-ROM from a HMC console.

After the first system load, before the debian-installer runs, the
system hangs with the message below.



List of all partitions:

No file system could mount root, tried:

Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown
block (1,0)



The SLES 10 SP2 is instaled and running very well in another LPAR, but
I prefer Debian
and the apt.

Can someone help me in this issue?



Best regards,



João Henrique

Lets start with a basic question - what storage have you presented to the lpar?

cheers,
Owen.
