Just for posterity, for RHEL 3 Update 9, I found the proper responses to be the
following:
Enter which kind of network device do you intend to use
(e.g. ctc, escon, iucv, eth, hsi, tr):
---> eth
Enter parameters you need to pass to the channel device layer.
This includes the I/O ports of your ctc, escon, qeth, hsi and lcs devices.
(e.g. "ctc0,0x600,0x601" will activate the ctc0 interface at I/O
ports 0x600,0x601)
Hipersocket interfaces need to be configured like qeth devices,
p.e. qeth0,0x3000,0x3001,0x3002
Additional parameters for QETH devices such as the portname
should be entered at the next prompt, not here !
---> qeth0,0x0700,0x0701,0x0702
This also worked:
---> qeth0,0x0700,0x0701,0x0702,0,0
Each OSA-Express feature in QDIO mode must be associated with a port name
Enter additional parameters for your QETH device
(e.g. "add_parms,0x10,{lo_devno,hi_devno},portname:port_name")
Press enter if you don't want to enter additional parameters
---> Enter
This also worked:
---> add_parms,0x10,0x0900,0x0903,portname:SOMENAME
You have been warned, but this will not work without an associated portname
Enter the IP address of your new Linux guest:
---> www.xxx.yyy.zzz
I was able to connect to the network and start an install. This was on a z10
EC box.
