I came the other way round. First tried to plumb up the interface, but I couldn't because I didn't know the name (tried different names anyway). That took me to the /etc/path_to_inst file, where you can consult which driver belongs to which hardware. But the NIC wasn't there... I think that's because the show-nets issue, the OBP is supposed to recognize it as a NIC card before using it at OS level. But I recognize it could be also that I still haven't installed the right driver for the NIC.

Do you know where might I find the e1000g driver? Probably it's dead easy to find it for Solaris9, but somehow I can't
