My first guess would be that you need to inform the chandev interface of
your devices.  Last month, Carlos Ordonez gave a pointer to an IBM Redbook
that talks about this
(http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/pubs/pdfs/redbooks/sg246515.pdf), and excerpted
the instructions pertinent to the problem.  Substitute the device numbers
appropriate to your system.
echo 'noauto ' >>/proc/chandev
echo 'qeth0,0x0e30,0x0e31,0x0e32,0,0 '>/proc/chandev
echo 'add_parms,0x10,0x0e30,0x0e32,portname:RPTRFET1 ' >>/proc/chandev
insmod qdio
insmod qeth
ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.0.0.255 up

Subject: Guest lan problems on RedHat 2.4.9-17


I have been trying to get a guest lan connection going between my RedHat
2.4.9-17 system and z/VM 4.2 TCPIP by following the instructions in the how
to at http://linuxvm.org/Info/HOWTOs/guestlan.html

The qeth driver refuses to load with the error message "no such device"
however, the devices are there.

root@ibml02 root# insmod qdio
Using /lib/modules/2.4.9-17/kernel/drivers/s390/qdio.o
Warning: loading /lib/modules/2.4.9-17/kernel/drivers/s390/qdio.o will taint
the  kernel: no license

     1D00 QDIO-ELIGIBLE

     1D01 QDIO-ELIGIBLE
OSA  1D02 ON NIC  1D00  UNIT 002 SUBCHANNEL = 0003
     1D02 QDIO-ELIGIBLE

Anyone know what the problem might be?

Thanks, Lonny
