Pursuant to the problem history of Debian bug #486528, I am ready to close this bug report also.  If the kernel dasd driver is enhanced to support recognizing the RECOMP area of a CMS minidisk as a separate partition, I consider this as a fulfillment of this requirement.  I can make a Linux file system in the RECOMP partition, mount it as /boot, and I'm there.  This
effectively causes zipl to boot from the RECOMP area.
