Mark spent quite a bit of time working with me off-list, but we got the missing OSA/2 interfaces working again.
The problem was a missing hotplug, due to a newbie error. I want to thank Mark for all the time he spent working on this with me. Dave Dave Stuart Prin. Info.

Isn't it > sufficient to add the modules in /etc/modules? Christian, Because my memory of which distribution does insmod commands for the network interface in the initrd was faulty. As it turns out, RHEL is the one that does it, not SLES. Just FYI, SLES9 doesn't really use /etc/modprobe.conf, /etc/modules.conf, or /etc/modprobe.d/* for setting up OSA interfaces. The module name is in /etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-{qeth,lcs}-bus-ccw-0.0.####.
