Pull off a new copy of the kernel and initrd and use those instead of the
ones from the original disks.  They may not have changed, but it's quick and
easy.

Can I proceed to perform the install using the update1 disk1-4 ISO images? I
down loaded that at the same time I downloaded the BASE Disk1-4 ISO images.

It is believed that this problem is resolved with UPDATE 1 of RHEL 3.  I am
preparing to test this myself as I have the same problem and a report has
been opened with bugzilla.  Red Hat has forwarded me the following Link to
obtain a copy of update 1.  You may want to talk to your RH rep.

Thanks!

Here is a better description of my problem.
I am building a new RHEL AS 3 system from Linux version 2.4.21-4.EL (Red Hat
Linux 3.2.3-20)

I put all the networking configuration information in, and I can connect to
the new initial ram disk system. I supply the DASD device numbers of
"151,200,201,202,203"

I then LOGN to ROOT on the initial system and see some of the following on
the system console

dasd(eckd): ECKD discipline initializing

And then toward the end I see this information:

* load module set done
* no firewire controller found
* no pcic controller found

At this point I start the install process. Select the NFS Setup option. Then
after id mounts the NFS Disk I get this prompt:

I select yes, Then I get this prompt

But the only driver I see is for   S/390 Channel to Channel (ctc)
