THanks for that tip. I can't remember having chosen level2, but I see
that my other (older) interfaces are not level2, so, yes, I would like
to switch to level3.
I used the commands (from "Device Drivers, Features...") to to take the
device offline and to make it not level2 (level2=9); After that, lsqeth
showed it as level2=0.
But after rebooting, it reverted to level2=1.
I noticed the following message on VM when booting:
---
..skippedWaiting for mandatory devices: hsi-bus-ccw-0.0.7000 __NSC__
29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4
3 2 1 0
hsi-bus-ccw-0.0.7000 No interface found
....
Any idea what I'm missing?
Roger
