I am installing 7.1 on an 8286-42a from virtual volume in VIOS.

- The LPAR starts.
- It runs
- The green-screen console comes up.

Then it quits when it tries to install the Licensed Internal Code and says
in the console:

*A device could not be selected to be the load source.*

But the LIC is on the volume it booted from ... dunno what to do. Any tips?
Web links?
