Unfortunately, despite of intensive QA testing prior the release, the
current maintenance update kernel seems to break the initialization of
guest lan interfaces in some cases.  Our kernel guys are aware of it and
will create a new kernel package as soon as possible. The current update
has been withdrawn from YaST Online Update and we've added a notice to
the portal article to minimize the effects.

Thus, please use this kernel only if you really need the fixes included
and only if you do not use guest lan. For those who already have
installed this kernel and find themselves without network connectivity,
please re-install the previous kernel:

64-bit mode:

31-bit mode:
http://sdb.suse.com/en/psdb/html/985c3bf47421fb88a4aff663f68943a7.html

Instructions on how to use the installation system as a rescue system:

You might need to do the following to successfully downgrade the
kernel RPM (as rpm -U won't let you install an older package and
rpm -i would not remove an previously installed kernel):

rpm -e k_deflt-2.4.21-266
rpm -ihv k_deflt-2.4.21-261.s390.rpm # (or k_deflt-2.4.21-261.s390x.rpm)
mkinitrd
zipl
