Title:
Installation on z14 LPAR via FTP load fails
Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems:

Bug description:
Installation on z14 LPAR via FTP load fails. The installer breaks with
error message
"An installation step failed. You can try to run the failing item
again from the menu, or skip it and choose something else. The failing
step is: Install the ZIPL boot loader on a hard disk"
When opening a shell:
~ # chroot target/ bash
root@m35lp54:/# zipl
Using config file '/etc/zipl.conf'
Error: Config file '/etc/zipl.conf': No such file or directory
After creating a working zipl.conf the boot loader can be written to disk on
the shell and the disk becomes bootable. The Installer however still fails with
the same error message.
