Hello, I'm totally new in the mainframe topic, so I'm begging You for some patience :)
I have 3 LPAR's on my system, each is prepared to run a Linux distribution (no VM). One is already running SLES 10, but other two are clear. I'm trying to install debian 4.0-r7 (old 2.6.18 kernel which is able to initialize my dasd) on the the second LPAR, but I can't get network during installation. After choosing OSA/Express (qeth) in debian installation I have to select "channels" (i.e. 0.0.1001-0.0.1002-0.0.1003, there are five choices but none of them works), then I set IP, gateway and so on, but still can't get network access. The SLES has no problem with networking; running debian installer on SLES LPAR (with SLES network configuration) also gives no problem, although the "channels'" addresses are different. The OSA which SLES is using is labeled as "Shared" in HMC and I don't know what to do to get these distributions to share connection. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
