Jim,

This is due to the fact that Red Hat does not include IBM's OCO modules in
their distribution.  You'll have to download the appropriate level yourself
(2.4.9), and follow the instructions Red Hat provides to include them in
your initial ram disk for the install.  You'll also have to make sure that
the module(s) get copied to your target system so they'll be there for the
"real" IPL.

Since the Red Hat distribution has gone GA, I would recommend downloading
the files for that which are different from the RC2 version, and using the
GA code.  There shouldn't be a huge difference, but why not be current?

Subject: Red Hat RC2 Install Problem on MP3000


I booted the Red Hat RC2 CD #1/4 using the SE CD-ROM Icon,
but I can't seem to find the right dialogue responses.

I'm trying to use the same setup I use successfully for SuSE
on another MP3000 system, which is LCS3172 address pair
e26-e27 and Ethernet card #2.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Here is my latest failed attempt:

...
Please enter the network device you intend to use (e.g. ctc0, escon0, iucv0,
eth0,
tr0):

eth0

Please enter any parameters you need to pass to the channel device layer.
This includes the I/O ports of your ctc, escon and lcs devices.
(e..g. "ctc0, 0x600, 0x601" will activate the ctc0 interface at I/O ports
0x600,
0x601)

"lcs,0xe26,0xe27,2"

(1) for OSA-2 with LCS or (2) for OSA-Express with QDIO/QETH

1

OSA Device Address (e.g. fc20,1 or "auto" (may not work)):

"0xe26,1"

error: no lcs module found
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth0: unknown interface: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
SIOCSIFBRDADDR: No such device
eth0:  unknown interface: No such device
SIOCADDRT: No such device

Thanks,
Jim
