So I can't just run a command on it that puts it in a Solaris package then get a converter?

Is this possible to do on Ubuntu Linux or should I move to another Solaris computer?

No, I want to install this driver while I install Solaris again. I'm wondering what format it needs to be in so I can do this. The menu I previously mentioned expects driver(s) if I pick option 5....

When I boot up the Solaris 10 5/09 install CD and select 'Solaris' from the GRUB menu that comes up, a menu loads. Option 5 is 'Apply Driver Updates'. Can I install the Gani driver using that? I...

I didn't know weather to post this in the Solaris or Linux forum so move it if necessary.
