Copyright ? 2015, 2016, 2017, Richard M. Troth, all rights reserved. ? ZNETBOOT makes it easy to bring up Linux on z/VM. Just enter the command 'znetboot' from the CMS "Ready;" prompt. ZNETBOOT is intended to reduce the number of manual steps required to boot Linux on a VM/CMS system. It should make things much easier for non-VM and non-mainframe users. By default, ZNETBOOT reads a file with a filename matching the VMID where you run it and a filetype of "ZNETBOOT". This file is nothing but a Linux boot parameters file, with the addition of URLs for the kernel and initial ramdisk. You can name a different file, so you can have several ZNETBOOT files to choose from. There is also a help file. Enter 'help cms znetboot' for that.
