I have good news: after leaving out the portname, I was able to get

Unfortunately (or perhaps by design), the installer retries the dialog
if it cannot activate the NIC. So, something is preventing the system
from activating the NIC. It may very well be that the OSA is in layer 2
mode, talking to a physical switch in layer 2 mode. If it is, then you
will need to specify layer 2 mode to the installer dialog, and come up
with an appropriate MAC address for the NIC. If you're still ATTACHing
real devices to your guest, I suppose the MAC would be whatever the real
OSA reports for that value.
If your OSA and switch are not in layer 2 mode, then something else is
wrong. I saw that you're specifying a port name for the NIC. Unless
someone else is already sharing that OSA and specifying a port name,
don't do that. The usual recommendation also, is to use all upper case
letters for the port name, because that's all that z/OS can specify. If
you're trying to share the card with a z/OS system, and you specify a
lower case (or mixed case) port name, you'll prevent the z/OS system
from activating its NIC. In general, most people recommend that you
never use port names at all. It's not really needed, and can lead to a
lot of head scratching.
