Subject: Re: chandev question
Robin,
I used the front end of Red Hat installer as the basis for mine, since I
really liked the idea of being able to specify just about all the parms
you
need in the parmfile. (I improved it a little bit, too, to scan what was
in
/proc/cmdline instead of relying on environment variables getting set.)
I would say that your parmfile should have this in it:
CHANDEV=lcs0,0x5012,0x5013
That matches what is in IBM's Device Drivers and Installation Commands
manual for Linux/390. If you're using something other than port 0, you'll
need to specify that as well. If you don't have a copy, there's a pointer
to it on linuxvm.org.

Subject: chandev question
i'm getting closer to getting slack390 install tape onto the network via
my 2216.
i'm getting:
"chandev_setup unknown verb detected eth0,0x5012,0x5013 interpretted as
eth0,0x5012,0x5013"
both the flagged statement and what it interprets it as are identical. i'm
also getting gobs of "device not found" errors for my 2216 devices.
/proc/chandev has the devices listed
/proc/subchannels have the devices listed as 3088/1f. shouldn't these be
3172 (which is how we have the devices defined in our iocds)? if so, is
there a way to force them to the proper device type?
my parameter file is:
DASD=C103-C104 root=/dev/ram0 ro
HOST=upgrlpar.maritimelife.ca:eth0:10.13.15.1:1500
NETWORK=10.13.15.1:255.255.255.0:10.13.15.255:10.13.15.2 DNS=10.10.1.101
CHANDEV=eth0,0x5012,0x5013
can anyone see what's wrong with this?
