Ok, I resume:
I'm testing installation of different distributions of Linux on top
of a zVM 4.2:
-SuSE Linux for S/390 version 7.2 running the 2.4.7 kernel
-RedHat Linux for S/390 version 7.2 running the 2.4.9 kernel
I'm using NFS installation mode through an OSA Gigabit card
(NB by the way, the NFS server is sharing the OSA card with the Linux
images)
-at first level of VM: no specific problem
-at second level of VM (Linux is a guest of a VM guest):
.installation of SuSE works fine, but with poorer performances
than at first level
.installation of RedHat: fails in most (> 95%) of the cases,
due to VERY VERY poor rate of the OSA card
I've tried to use an OSA Fast Ethernet card, with same result for RedHat
install.... I really suspect I did someting wrong on VM side....
which lead RedHat not to behave as well as SuSE...
But what?
Any kind of advice, somebody?
Amicalement/Best Regards...

Please respond to

Hello from Gregg C Levine normally with Jedi Knight Computers
Um, right John..... Elizabeth, numbers do not hold much meaning for
those of us who are not accustomed to recognizing things that way. I've
guessed out pretty much the same things, as John there, so, I think we
are in the minority. Can you repost your statement with the names
attached? And John, the next time you are visiting this country, catch
up with me, I owe you something.
