bcs vios finally stable. ifix IZ25182 installed.

IBM had me install an as of not yet released fix for my problem of
VIOS crashing after the IBM i partition is activated on the JS12
blade. The VIOS fix is IZ25182. Been running for 24 hours on the fix
and VIOS is still ticking.

I am curious to know how VIOS works, how it could be corrupted by a
guest OS. One thing that was happening was VIOS would not boot unless
I loaded the VIOS install disk in the CD. Yet once the system came up,
I was working from the VIOS that had already been installed and had
crashed. The techs explained that the master boot record had been
corrupted and the system needed the CD to have a clean boot record to
IPL from.
