I updated a VIOS install to 22410, but the PC that was doing the update
lost connectivity in the middle of the updatios command leaving it
incomplete.

After trying a comit, the log has the following:

Clearly the Ethernet code did not update. Now VIOS will not let me SLIP
install to fix it claiming I need to commit all the software first, but in
order to commit, I need to install this software.

Any ideas how to fix this? IBM is giving me the we'll call you back in
this century routine so support is nearly worthless, not to mention the guy
in a non-US city knows less about VIOS than I do.
