Hello, As recently nge supported MCP61, the root cause that the dhcp doesn't work for you, might not be nge driver. You need to remove rge before you install nfo if you want to use nfo for MCP61. As you have installed nfo, the procedure to install nfo for MCP61 is, remove nfo # rem_drv nfo remove nge # rem_drv nge reboot the system # init 6 install nfo # /usr/ccs/bin/make install (in nfo-2.6.0 directory) # adddrv.sh # init 6 (recent opensolaris requires this reboot) ... # devfsadm -i nfo # ifconfig nfo0 plumb host_name up -masa -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ driver-discuss mailing list driver-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/driver-discuss
