Solaris and PCI Ethernet cards -- Was: [lug] [OT] Solaris device names

[John Starkey]

No. I'm trying to get a Tulip (Netgear Card) to work using Solaris on a PII.

Pain in the butt. It's showing now in the config, when it asks for a boot
device. And it appears when it lists the devices to config, but once the
system is up I can;t find it anywhere.
