My first guess is that you could try to change e1000g with bge. Solaris has different approaches on naming a NIC, but I don't know how this works.
A nic could be named e1000g0 or bge0 or nge0 and it seems to depend on the hardware. -----Original Message----- From: Glenn Holmer [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: dinsdag 3 juli 2012 3:21 To: Discussion list for OpenIndiana Subject: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Intel 82579V ethernet not recognized I'm trying to install OpenIndiana. I booted the oi151a Desktop DVD, but my Ethernet card (Intel 82579V) is not recognized. I found some information here: https://www.illumos.org/issues/832 but I just don't know enough Solaris to understand it. I entered this: update_drv -a -i '"pci8086,1503"' e1000g and got this: devfsadm: driver failed to attach : e1000g Warning: Driver (e1000g) successfully added to system but failed to attach What steps should I take in what order? Do I try and install first, then correct the driver afterward, or won't that even work? Or is there a newer release I can try? -- Glenn Holmer (Linux registered user #16682) "After the vintage season came the aftermath -- and Cenbe." _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
