Re: Reloading OS/400 on 9402 mod. 200 -- MIDRANGE-L

IIRC, we reloaded microcode and upgraded OS/400 on our CISC machines 
and (almost) never needed the MULIC/FULIC tape.  It is my 
understanding that there is an area on disk that the M/F tape is 
loaded to that is unaffected by functions of mere mortals, including 
reloading microcode and upgrading OS/400.

This special area was reputed to be the home of the System Serial 
Number and other things not for the eyes of mortal men.

If this area on your disk is still intact, you could be lucky.  But 
your mileage may vary.
