    • Transfer the VM reader kernel, the parmfile, and the initial RAM disk using FTP to a minidisk accessible to the guest in z/VM and create a REXX start-up script for the IPL of the VM reader.

    • Transfer the tape IPL kernel, the parmfile, and the initial RAM disk using FTP to a minidisk accessible to the guest in z/VM and transfer these files to the tape using, for example, a REXX script.

  5. Perform the IPL of the installation system.
