Hi everyone,

I just got a used system and I have a problem when trying to IPL to DST
mode. The IPL stops with A6005008 which I believe means there is a
problem with the console. I've been pouring over the IBM manuals and
quite honestly they aren't making much sense to me. The manuals indicate
I need to check word 16 of the above SRC which I believe is 50010002.
Checking this I think indicates that the console type is configured to
Operations Console (direct). We want to use the twinax console. I think
I need to use the 65+21 service functions to do so, but the instructions
are hopelessly confusing.

How do I change the console type? Am I correct that that is what I need
to do? How do I access the 65+21 service functions (I need exact button
presses here)? It is a 9406-820 at V5R3, no PTFs.

if you want to understand why that is, there are many good books on
the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
