Larry, you might try using the cio_ignore= kernel option to limit the number of addresses the zLinux kernel looks for at boot time. You might try something like this:
cio_ignore=all,!0.0.1150,!0.0.fd00-0.0.fd02 will ignore at boot time all devices except those at addresses 1150, and FD00-FD02. I would put it in the generic parameter file you use at boot time to load the kernel and initrd files.
