One should not do replying when

a) in hurry
b) knowing that you should have been bed hours ago
c) tired (b)


For all the other information (which are valid) i wrote about thise
before, it seems just that 

QETH=yes
TYPE=QETH

Are not valid for this setup. The magic in network-functions get all
wrong when CTC is defined as QETH, so it more like should be

TYPE=CTC

and nuke that 'QETH=yes' line alltogether.


As i said, i had valis Tao/s390x setup already when i updated it to
FC3/rawhide, so i had all this information on my ifcfg-ctc0 except the
SUBCHANNELS-line which i had to dig out for 2.6-series.

Actually i remember testing just 2.6-kernel over Tao/s390x before i
started to 'follow the future'.

I should have spotted this little detail immetiatedly, but i didn't,
so sorry about that .....
