I got through the first part of Kevin Leonard's gen process. I did run into
some issues, though...
1) The biggest issue is that the starter system only has 4 3350s defined. I
discovered this was a problem while getting g04-init-dasd-misc to run. I
wound up unmounting the WORK61 volume at 14B and using that for PERM73
instead.
2) The starter system needs to be IPLd from a 3215 console at 01F. Thai is
because that address needs to be online at IPL time so the SPECIFY HARDCOPY
message can be replied to with "r 00,'hardcpy=01f,all,cmds)'". Replying
SYSLOG instead of 01F there results in the SPECIFY HARDCOPY message being
repeated. You can have a 3270 console connected at 010, and once the system
is up, switch to it with "v 010,mstcons".
3) The supplied stage 1 has display consoles defined, and so a 6.7 genned
with that deck can't be IPLd: you have to have the 3270 online at IPL time
or else you get a 00F wait state, and if you have it online the DIDOCS bug
gets you. I'm about to rerun the stage 1 with the 3270 consoles removed.
Maybe the usermod can be applied before the gen is run? Haven't looked at
that yet.
