It works for me.  My parmfile looks like this:
ramdisk_size=65536 root=/dev/ram1 ro init=/linuxrc TERM=dumb
HostIP=10.10.220.118 Gateway=10.10.0.8 Nameserver=10.10.0.1
Portname=None Portno=0 Manual=0
Layer2=0
InstNetDev=osa OsaInterface=qdio OsaMedium=eth
ReadChannel=0.0.0700 WriteChannel=0.0.0701 DataChannel=0.0.0702
UseVNC=1 VNCPassword=pass4root Netmask=255.255.0.0
UseSSH=1 SSHPassword=pass4root Netmask=255.255.0.0
install=nfs://10.10.0.20/SLE11/iso/SLES-11-DVD-s390x-GM-DVD1.iso
