Hi I am trying to install suse enterprise linux power on an ibm p710. This server does not have a graphics card, I am using an IBM 3153 terminal set to emulate a vt100 I can boot to the sms menu and then select the cd device to boot from. I then get the boot prompt and type install. The server loads the kernel from the cd into ram and then states that it is starting yast. At this point the screen goes blank. I cannot therefore continue the install; I thought the server might be trying to output yast as an x windows application instead of ncurses. I therefore tried to install using the following string to enable connection to eth0 using VNC. install vnc=1 vnc_password=abc. The screen then prompts me to select eth0 or eth1. I select eth0 and the kernel panics with the following error kernel panic: hvsi_recv_control: service processor closed HVSI connection Any help is much appreciated Thanks Martin This e-mail contains information that may be confidential or privileged.
