Sounds like you might have had parameters going right up to column 80.  That
would have caused it to be "merged" with the parameter starting in column 1
of the next card.  This is due to the way the cards are parsed, and is
intended as a feature, since the amount of available card space is so
limited.  It allows continuations across card boundaries without chewing up
columns with continuation characters.

I don't know what was wrong, but I used Brock Organ's  format/suggestion
and it worked the first time I tried it.
Below is an example of his .PRM file

<.PRM>

> root=/dev/ram0 ro ip=off ramdisk_size=40000 DASD=200-201
> HOSTNAME=foobar.life.redhat.com IPADDR=192.168.10.105
> NETWORK=192.168.10.0 NETMASK=255.255.255.0
> SEARCHDNS=redhat.com:devel.redhat.com:z900.redhat.com
> BROADCAST=192.168.10.255 DNS=132.14.53.2
> CHANDEV=qeth0,0x600,0x601,0x602 NETTYPE=eth
> QETHPARM=add_parms,0x10,0x600,0x602,portname:FOOBAR
> MTU=1492 GATEWAY=192.168.10.254

</.PRM>

Thanks Brock

Steve Gentry

Steve,

Could you tell us what was wrong, and what was done to fix it?  It might
help the next person(s) to come along.
