I am in the process of installing my first RedHat guest image. I have
installed SuSE and of course we used Channel to Channel given the known
issues with the Gig Adapters (OCO I believe).
I am now attempting to bring up RedHat; however, not finding any known
issues with the Gig Adapters I thought I would try an FTP install. So I
have my FTP system, I have my REDHAT PRM A file. I have it booting up to
the shell and asking me to now to connect to it via the given IP address.
The problem is I don't see the network adapter and I don't see an adapter
with the requested IP address. So the question now is, am I doing
something wrong or is there in fact a problem with the HSI configuration?
I am installing these images into a z/VM environment, so they are guests
and they are connecting to guest LANs.
Here is what I have thus far:

During the boot process I am prompted to answer two questions:
hwc low level driver: can write messages
hwc low level driver: can not read state change notifications
hwc low level driver: can read commands
hwc low level driver: can read priority commands

Please enter parameters you need to pass to the channel device layer.
This includes the I/O ports of your ctc, escon, qeth, hsi and lcs devices.
Additional parameters for QETH devices such as the portname
should be entered at the next prompt, not here !
(e.g. "ctc0,0x600,0x601" will activate the ctc0 interface at I/O
ports 0x600,0x601):
qeth0,0xbfe0,0xbfe1,0xbfe2 <--------------- My Answer
Each OSA-Express feature in QDIO mode must be associated with a port name
Please enter additional parameters for your QETH device
(e.g. "add_parms,0x10,{lo_devno,hi_devno},portname:port_name")
Press enter if you don't want to enter additional parameters
