Fo the LAN card, if you do have the right driver, it should be seen after a simple "boot -r". Sometimes, one's must add some packages (i.e. for X25 cards). To be check that the hardware see this device, follow these steps : # init 0 -> goes to obp (open boot prom) and gives you this prompt : ok enter the following : ok setenv auto-boot? false ok reset (the wait a while) ok watch-net-all Then your LAN card should be seen... If not, you might need a driver on Solaris to handle it... then, to get everything as before : ok setenv auto-boot? true ok boot -r As far as I know, there's no way to make a tape bootable on Solaris. May be on next release (feb 2002). Back to the Index
