I am using the mkinitrd CLI with a -D option to build my initrd that runs DHCP on eth0. However, when I IPL the system with the initrd, kernel, and parm punched to reader, I get the following error:
err, eth0: ioctl SIOCGIFHWADDR: No such device
My DHCP server is setup correctly, but how does the mkinitrd command group
the 3 device numbers?
Thanks,

You could try http:///linuxvm.org/Patches/#qethon since you're building
your own initrd. (I'm not even going to ask why you think that's a good
idea.)

No, you're trying to boot SLES11 SP1. There's enough confusion going
around about openSUSE release numbers and SLES, please don't add to it.
