Hmm... Thanks very much incredible. I will try those commands, but I think maybe I won't be able to extract information from them. I think those commands work when the card is already correctly installed.
I've been searching in /dev, /devices and /etc/path_to_inst for the info I got from OBP show-devs (/pci@9,700000/ethernet@2,1 and /pci@9,700000/ethernet@2), and there are no references at all. So in my opinion the OS doesn't see the card. I still think I must first install the correct driver. I've find this one: ftp.net.pulawy.pl/pub/drivers/gigabyte/Network/Intel/PRO1000/ But I'd rather install a driver downloaded from sun site... (sigh) |

obp won't be dealing with the driver. the os will. most likely when the system is coming up, its not attaching the correct driver. you need to make sure that driver for that card is seen by the kernel. check modinfo and see if its there.
if you have loaded the driver... what sequence of commands did you use? |

He may want to use these commands:
# modinfo |grep net 118 7bb0a000 1c0b8 84 1 e1000g (Intel PRO/1000 Ethernet 5.0.9) 189 7bab3008 9b0 237 1 vni (Virtual network interface 1.1) 192 7b73c000 79730 20 1 nfs (network filesystem) 192 7b73c000 79730 7 1 nfs (network filesystem version 2) 192 7b73c000 79730 21 1 nfs (network filesystem version 3) 192 7b73c000 79730 22 1 nfs (network filesystem version 4) 213 13e6ba0 f538 8 1 eri (10/100 Mb Ethernet Driver v1.37) 214 7ba00000 f798 7 1 hme (10/100Mb Ethernet Driver v1.180) 218 7b26c000 59ff0 92 1 ce (CE Ethernet Driver v1.157) 219 7ba34728 2a78 - 1 vlan (Ethernet VLAN module (v1) 1.27) # prtconf -D |grep net network, instance #0 (driver name: e1000g) network, instance #1 (driver name: e1000g) network, instance #2 (driver name: e1000g) network, instance #3 (driver name: e1000g) network, instance #8 (driver name: e1000g) network, instance #9 (driver name: e1000g) |

The card was definitely not supported for Solaris 9, it only works for Solaris 10.
I replaced it with a "Sun Quad GigaSwift PCI-X Ethernet UTP Adapter (X4445A)", which is supported for both, and it worked like a charm, very smooth installation. Thank you all for your help! |
