I should have seen this earlier. Duh. There's your missing quote - at the end

Jake, I installed into an LPAR using FTP server running on Intel Based Linux.

Here is my prm file. This should be a single line


While it's certainly safe to have it as one single line, I think that bug was
fixed quite a while ago, so not only the kernel but also dracut, parsing many
of the installer/boot-specific pseudo kernel parameters, can deal with newlines
in the string. It might have been this change:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/boot/dracut/dracut.git/commit/?id=9f0878540bdc8054dc2b45427eed957b9bd25f2d


inst.repo=ftp://user:password@ftpserver/ClefOS  
root=live:ftp://user:password@ftpserver/ClefOS/images/install.img ro 
ramdisk_size=4 cio_ignore=cio_ignore -r 0.0.d900,0.0.d901,0.0.d902,!condev 
rd.znet=qeth,0.0.d900,0.0.d901,0.0.d902,layer2=1 
ip=10.0.20.20::10.0.20.1:24:clefos1:enccw0.0.d900:none nameserver=10.0.20.254 
nameserver=10.0.20.253


IIRC, inst.repo= implies root= to find install.img within the file system of
the installation DVD. So root= is only necessary for very special cases to
override the automatic implication.

"cio_ignore -r 0.0.d900,0.0.d901,0.0.d902" looks like the syntax a user would
enter on the interactive (shell) command line invoking the s390-tool cio_ignore
to remove/free those device bus-IDs.
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/linuxonibm/com.ibm.linux.z.lkdd/lkdd_r_cio_ignore_cmd.html

The parm file uses kernel parameter syntax.
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/linuxonibm/com.ibm.linux.z.lkdd/lkdd_r_cioignoreparm.html

However, since RHEL6.0, all code parts dealing with onlining of CCW devices,
automatically deal with cio_ignore in the background transparently for the user.
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/html/installation_guide/ch-parmfiles#ch-parmfiles-required
In this case. the rd.znet= parameter parsing code in dracut implicitly frees
its devbusids from cio_ignore before attempting to group them into a ccwgroup
and set the ccwgroup online. Likewise for rd.dasd= and rd.zfcp=.
IOW, the mechanism to onlining, which is required anyway, was extended to also
handle cio_ignore as they both use the same input information, namely device
bus-IDs.
Hence there is no need to modify the cio_ignore= kernel parm.

Looks like the storage component blivet of anaconda tries to parse the kernel 
commandline in order to configure FCoE, and it does not like what's in the 
kernel command line, probably a mis-balanced quote. The kernel command line 
comes from the parm file you booted the installer with.

Sounds like the Z install image you have is corrupted. Try getting a fresh copy 
and start over with the install. When you transfer the image, make sure it’s 
transferred in binary mode (the Windows FTP client defaults to text mode unless 
told to switch, so if you used the Windows ftp client, that’s probably what 
happened).

Ok there was an error with the subnet mask and it is going fine, but find
some message which am not sure from Linux point of view .

Warnings : can't find installer main page path in .treeinfo

AnacondaY1787 : raise Value error("No closing quotation")
AnacondaY1787 : valueError: No closing quotation

After the above phase it's not proceeding further.

You may have more luck installing from a HTTP source. IIS is pretty awful, but 
it should be able to supply the files if prepared correctly. There is a section 
in the docs on what files have to be where and how you need to handle filename 
cases, etc. 

If you can boot your Intel machine from USB or DVD, there are a number of 
bootable Linux images that work well and don't involve installing on the local 
disk of your Intel box. That may prove to be a lot less grief in the long run.

Or else are there any other alternative to attempt this installation ?

Re: Redhat 8.1 error

2019-09-10 Thread Jake Anderson
So right now I don't have an option to use Linux location to mount this
ISO..

Is there a way to make this work using ftp folder by placing the redhat
image in it ?

Or else are there any other alternative to attempt this installation ?

Not in many years when mounting an ISO image for use in an FTP installation 
required what was called "Rock Ridge Extensions". This was back in the days of 
Win2K and WinXP so I can't imagine this is still required today.

Please, please, please, get rid of that cio_ignore parameter. When
installing Linux as a guest of z/VM, it's absolutely useless and has

Jake, the parm file needs to be one continuous line, no CRLF. On Windows I have 
been using NOTEPAD++ to create the correct format parm file.

Subject: Re: Redhat 8.1 error

I am trying to FTP the Linux files from my windows (which is an ftp
server).

After changing enccw0.0.0600:none to

enc600:none. The message was different this time and I got

RTNETLINK answers : Network is unreachable

Warning : can't find installer main image path in .treeinfo


Failed to connect 9.1.9.166 port 21 : no route to host

From the window I just moved the image folder of redhat disc image
file(rhel-8.0-s390x-boot).

This is the first time I am attempting from windows FTP to zVM. Apart from
moving the image folders are there any other customisation required in
windows?

Also, make sure you don't change the filename or directory case.   Windows 
doesn't care it
a file is uppercase/lowercase, but Linux will.

how about the .treeinfo from the root directory? I'm not familiar with
Windows any more, but there should be an option to see "invisible" or
"system" files whose names start with a dot on Linux.

If there is a transfer log on the FTP server, it should show what files
the installation is looking for (both successfully and unsuccessfully).
Does it try to find install.img which is the actual installer?

Re: Redhat 8.1 error

2019-09-10 Thread Jake Anderson
Hi

No firewall is not blocking as I tested from the guest session with FTP
command and I was able to logon to my windows FTP server from zVM.

Secondly I have moved all the image file content to my windows FTP folder
Which has

Boot - security catalogue
Cdboot - disc image file
Cdboot - PRM file
Generic - PRM file
Genericdvd - PRM file
Initrd.addrsize - ADDRSIZE file
Initrd - disc image file
Install - disc image file
Kernel - disc image file
Redhat.exec - EXEC file
TRANS.TBL - TBL file

Now above files are placed inside the FTP folder path under image folder.


Regards
Jake

You should move everything from the DVD to the ftp server (or let the
ftp server provide the whole ISO mounted somewhere). The installer
looks for some internal files and looks for the paths to the rest of
the content there. It tries to find ${inst.repo}/.treeinfo

Re: Redhat 8.1 error

2019-09-09 Thread Jake Anderson
I am trying to FTP the Linux files from my windows (which is an ftp
server).

After changing enccw0.0.0600:none to

enc600:none. The message was different this time and I got

RTNETLINK answers : Network is unreachable

Warning : can't find installer main image path in .treeinfo


Failed to connect 9.1.9.166 port 21 : no route to host

>From the window I just moved the image folder of redhat disc image
file(rhel-8.0-s390x-boot).

This is the first time I am attempting from windows FTP to zVM. Apart from
moving the image folders are there any other customisation required in
windows?

please make sure all options are in lowercase (ip=), udev in rhel8
changed/shortened the persistent naming for network interface, it's now
enc600

I think the first step in diagnosing such issues should be reviewing
"ip addr" and "ip route" outputs in the emergency shell.
