I am running SLES7 under zVM 4.3 using a Guest Lan. The current kernel is
2.4.7. I have built kermel 2.4.19, when I reboot with the new kernel I see
the folloowing errors:

When I logon onto the virtual machine through the TN3270, I see (using the
lsmod command) that the qdio.o and qeth.o modules have not been loaded. I
then use the insmod command to load qdio.o and qeth.o followed by ifconfig
and route command to get the Linux virtual machine on the network.

I have compared the locations of qdio.o and qeth.o in the
/lib/modules/2.4.19 tree with their locations in another Linux virtual
machine which is running the 2.4.17 kernel. I move qdio.o and qeth.o to the
same locations and I got the same errors.

This error only occurs with the new kernel. If I boot with the old kernel
the nework starts right up.

Is there something I did wrong in the configuration of the new kernel? Where
should qdio.o and qeth.o be in the /lib/modules/2.4.19 directory tree? What
did I do wrong?

Any help or insight will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
