** PRIVATE ** Hi Guys In the absence of local Novell support, as they are both on leave, wondered if anyone else had any experience of the SuSe 10 starter system. We have got as far as "Install a New Guest using the Starter System" on Page 28 of the Starter System Installation Guide and created the new virtual machine using the notes in "CP Directory Entry Notes". Then following "Starting the Install Process" on Page 30, these are the steps: enter - SLES Select - 4) Start Installation or System Select - 1) Start Installation or Update select - 2) Network select - 1) FTP select - 1) OSA-2 or OSA Express select - 1) QDIO select - 1) Ethernet get the following - NET: Registered protocol family 10 lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions IPv6 over IPv4 tunneling driver qdio: loading QDIO base support version 2 qeth: loading qeth S/390 OSA-Express driver 0.0.0340 1731/01 0.0.0341 1731/01 0.0.0342 1731/01 Device address for read channel> enter - 0.0.0340 Device address for write channel> enter - 0.0.0341 Device address for data channel> enter - 0.0.0342 Portname to use> enter Enable OSI Layer 2 support? 1) Yes MAC address> enter - 02-00-01-00-00-08 ( we sued the MAC address of NOVSTART virt m/c i.e. starter system server) get the following error message: qeth: received an IDX TERMINATE with cause code 0xf6 qeth: sense data available on channel 0.0.0340. qeth: cstat 0x0 dstat 0xE qeth: irb: 00 c2 60 17 1e b8 d0 38 0e 00 10 00 00 80 00 00 qeth: irb: 01 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 qeth: sense data: 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 qeth: sense data: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 qeth: Initialization in hardsetup failed! rc=-5 there is no mention of MAC address being requested in the install instructions, can anyone help?
