From 283f11bfbac85c8fdcd688c34bd76e383d90c01e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heiko Carstens Date: Mon, 22 Aug 2011 08:59:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] [S390] nss,initrd: kernel image and initrd must be in different segments When IPL'ing from a block device and an NSS should be created we must make sure that the kernel image and the initrd are in different 1MB segments. Otherwise creating the NSS will fail. So we make sure the initrd is 4MB behind the end of the kernel image like we do already when IPL via the VM reader is performed.
