Problem is after installation it fails to plumb this interface.
How do you know that it fails to plumb? What is the error message?
If the install process configures e1000g1 thru' e1000g4 it should create /etc/hostname.e1000g1 thru /etc/hostname.e1000g4 files.
A booting Solaris knows that it should plumb these interfaces by the presence (or not) of these files. If this file(s) do not exist then create them manually. (The only text in the files will be the nodename for that interface as a single ASCII string. Nothing else.)
Ensure that /etc/hostname.e1000g1 exists (or otherwise create it yourself) and reboot the system. What happens?
Also, tell us what /etc/hostname.* files exist on your root hard disk filesystem.

hostname
HOSTNAME(5) /etc/hostname HOSTNAME(5)
NAME
hostname - Local host name configuration file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/hostname
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/hostname file configures the name of the local system that is set during boot, with the sethostname(2) system call. It should
contain a single newline-terminated host name string. The host name may be a free-form string up to 64 characters in length, however it is
recommended that it consists only of 7bit ASCII lower-case characters and no spaces or dots, and limits itself to the format allowed for
DNS domain name labels, even though this is not a strict requirement.
Depending on the operating system other configuration files might be checked for configuration of the host name as well, however only as
fallback.
HISTORY
The simple configuration file format of /etc/hostname originates from Debian GNU/Linux.
