Hey guys,
I've been scouring the internet all morning looking for a solution to my problem. I'm installing the lastest version of Gentoo on my Ultra 10. I'm able to boot of the installation CD but once I'm at the (livecd root#) prompt and run /sbin/ifconfig; my NIC is not listed only Lo0. I tried to modprobe 8139too and tulip with no luck. I can not find the correct module to run modprobe on. I came across a few articles that refer to the Sun Happy Meal Ethernet but I do not know the module name. I don't want to go any further with the install until I'm able to get this NIC working.

Please help me get this Ultra 10 running! :roll:

Thanks in advance!

Also it might help to try running :

net-setup eth0


from the root prompt. - the rest should be automatic (well it was for me anyway).

As has been said its a "sunhme" card.
