Hi, Chuck.
If my (failing) memory serves, this error had something to do with the
portname parameter not matching what the system expected. You might try
a search of the archives (both here and on the VM-ESA list) for
"portname" and "Red Hat".
Hope this is of some small help and good luck.

I have installed SUSE under z/VM and currently have 5 guests running.
In an effort to evaluate RH, I'm trying to get it to install under z/VM
as well. z/VM is set up to use a VSWITCH to share the OSA port. The
VSWITCH devices are 300, 301 and 302. I'm getting the error:
qeth: received an IDX TERMINATE with cause code 0x4e
qeth: Initialization in hardsetup failed! rc=-5
when booting the RH install kernel. I found a few others posted this
problem in the past.
