-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Package: release-notes Severity: important
The release notes should warn that running Debian Lenny under z/VM 5.3 prior to service level 802 will likely lead to filesystem corruption and at least RSU 5305 should be applied before running or upgrading to Lenny. Starting with Kernel 2.6.25, Linux on the s390 architecture running under z/VM hypervisor uses a new CCW for DASD access that triggers an error in z/VM leading to I/O errors and finally file system inconsistency. This error could be confirmed running z/VM 5.3 with RSU (Recommended Service Update) 5304 and was fixed by IBM in RSU 5305 (service level 802). IBM problem report: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg1VM64417 (in the problem report a z/OS guest ist mentioned, nevertheless this problem also affects linux guests).
