Tim,
maybe your problems with the installation routine could be fixed with this
workaround:
in the installationsystem enter the QETH parameters
0x35a0,0x35a1,0x35a2;add_parms,0x10,portname:OSAE
next question "Do you have OSE Express microcode level 0146 or higher?"
please answer with "n"
There is a fix for the installationsystem available at SuSE.
Is the portname ok? Matching with portname in os/390 ?
