Yep, Same here. It looks like the IBM OCO code is not included in INITRD.IMG. There are instructions on how to modify this to include the QETH.O, and QDIO.O modules, which I have done, but now have to find a CD burner to burn a new bootable CD. The instructions are at:

I'm trying to install into an LPAR using the LOAD from CD option on the HMC. I'm having a hard time configuring the GbE OSA adapter on eth0 in QDIO mode. I'm prompted for the card addresses, and I enter 0xF400,0xF401,0xF402. I get an error message that says ERROR unknown verb, enter man chandev. Well, since this is my first RH system, I can't do that yet. Does the IPLable CD have the necessary drivers available for OSA-E cards? If so, the install doc is VERY limited, and since this is an evaluation copy, I have no support available. Any hints,tips, pointers about the initial install would be appreciated. BTW, I already have a couple of LPARs with SuSE running on it, so I know that the hardware is working ok.
