We are thinking of inserting This bug is fixed now in our internal tree, thanks for your report ! There is only a somewhat complicated way to circumvent this bug: - proceed through the installation until the point where you are asked to ipl (the end of the installation routines). - remount the DASD containing your root filesystem and chroot to it. As an example: mount /mnt/dasda1 /mnt/runtime chroot /mnt/runtime - edit /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit search for this line: for i in /lib/modules/ibm-$kernelver/net/*; do and change it to for i in /lib/modules/ibm/*; do - save the file and exit from the chroot environment - umount /mnt/runtime - ipl > the lcs.o file into the /lib/modules/2.4.7-6.1BOOT/kernel/drivers/s390/net/ > directory, but I would like some confirmation if this is the actual problem > before I ruin any more CDs. > > So, does anyone know if this is the necessary course of action and, if not, > what we should be doing instead?
