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.

Christian,
Because my memory of which distribution does insmod commands for the network
interface in the initrd
What I don't understand is, why you have to build an initrd? Isn't it
sufficient to add the modules in /etc/modules?

I've got one network interface up and running. The other one gave a Detection

Hi Mark,
I read the man pages for mkinitrd, but I am not really sure what I am looking
at, what options I need when, etc.
I ran mkinitrd and let it default, and then ran zipl. Shutdown -r, and my
network interfaces are gone again. The /sys/bus/ccwgroup/ directory doesn't
even exist. So I

Well, that explains why the find command didn't return anything.
I did a cd to /sys/devices/cu3088 and a "ls -l". There are no 0.0.051x

Hi Mark,
Thanks. I'll give these things a try.
Everything used to work ok. The dqio and qeth modules were loaded at boot

With the network interfaces down, my only access to the Linux system is via the
HMC. And we had a UPS fail last night (physically, some part went out), and
the HMC is 'Toast' at the present time. At this time, the CE is not sure what
he will have to do to fix it.
