Mark,

Is there any way to bring up Red Hat RC2 without the OCO modules?

I'm running z/VM V4R2 on the MP3000, with two OS/390
guests plus SuSE SLES7 already.

Regards,
Jim

Jim,

Here's what you said: "...the same setup I use successfully for SuSE on
another MP3000 system, which is LCS3172 address pair..."  LCS=Lan Channel
Station=OSA.  Your PC ethernet card is being emulated as an OSA card to your
MP3K.  SuSE includes the IBM OCO modules, so that's why you didn't have a
problem with that distribution.  Red Hat and IBM claim that if you follow
the directions to include the modules yourself, that it will work.  If you
get it to work, I ask that you report that to the mailing list, as it will
be the first public report of such a success with Red Hat and their later
kernels.  The URL you want is this:
http://www10.software.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/linux390/special_oco
_rh_2.4.shtml  Watch out for the mailing list server chopping that up; it's
pretty long.  You can get to there from here:
http://www10.software.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/linux390/index.shtml

Your dialog responses looked reasonable, but since I don't have access to a
system with an OSA card (real or emulated) I haven't been able to play
around with the installation script to determine just what works and what
doesn't.  Still, if you have problems, I'm willing to work with you to try
to figure them out.
