Yes, a number of times.

Not that I ran into.  If, at the prompt, you enter an "x" (which isn't on the 
menu), you should then see another short menu that will allow you to get into a 
shell.  Once there, make sure your NIC is correctly defined, coupled, and 
configured.  I don't know if ping is in the stage1 initrd or not, but try 
pinging your default gateway, the other z/VM guest, etc.
