Eric, Ok. Just to recap, you are dead in the water until you can get a CTC connection to your production LPAR. That is the only way you're going to get a working network with the current distributions. Once that is done, you'll probably want to refer to the "Linux for IBM zSeries and S/390: Distributions" Redbook, SG24-6264. It's pointed to from the top of the main page at http://linuxvm.org/ . That has step by step instructions for doing what you need to do after you get the network up, and is more current that the document you've been using.

I'm at home now, so I don't have the bookmark. The files I was talking about is the tar file that comes with the Marist Linux that is used to create the file system. The questions were asked about the parameters for creating the network, but right now I have to reply 'no' to the question, as I don't have a Claw driver on this version of Linux. I have a Cisco router, and have a couple addresses free on it that I can use, but I need the Claw driver. I'm on vacation tomorrow, so I will read any replies on Monday, in case anyone asks any more questions. Thanks for all of the good answers. Eric >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/06/03 17:26 PM >>> Eric, What book are you referring to, and what "files" is the book talking about. If you booted the 3 starter files for the Marist system, the first thing that _should_ have happened is a bunch of questions get asked about network parameters, etc. Did that not happen? Mark Post -----Original Message----- From: Eric Bielefeld [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 3:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: NFS mounted directory Another question. I booted Linux in my Linux Lpar. I formatted 4 disks, and I created file systems on 2 of them using the mke2fs command. Now, the book on the Marist system that I'm using says: You can transfer these files by either using FTP or by copying them into and NFS-mounted directory. I don't have FTP, as I don't have a network yet, only the Hardware console. How do I create a NFS mounted directory? I have the large files system copied on a dasd that Linux has access to, but it is an MVS labeled pack.
