I am trying to install Debian 4.0 Etch under VM on an s390 mainframe.
I am using a network install and a guest lan for connectivity. After I
sucessfully install the OS, the system re-boots. On Re-boot, Linux
doesn't recognize the guest lan, even though did a network install
using it.

Is this a kernel problem ir an installer problem ir what?

or what?

The installer uses it's own configuration, and AFAIK, does not always
configure the system the same way that it uses when installing.
Therefore, you may need to reconfigure the network manually.

1) Make sure the correct driver for the kernel is loading, most likely
this is already installed since you're running in a VM and most likely
it is using pretty standard hardware emulation.

2) Check the /etc/network/interfaces file and make sure the definition
for the network is correct. Most likely your problem is there.

I hope this helps.
