Does the module load at boot?
Try: lsmod | grep forcedeth
If that command comes back w/out output, then the module isn't loaded.
Next try: modprobe forcedeth
That will attempt to load the module. Check to see if the card is showing up
now. If so, add it to /etc/modules and you should be good to go.

PS to anyone waiting: VMWare ESXi & Endian howto is still on my "to-do"
list... my ESXi lab box is at a client's site right now.

Well... It's not succesfull !!! Apparently, efw doesn't "see" the nic...
i don't know yet wether the nic is recognized at any stage by efw... the
logs doesn't say a word regarding an unknown nic...
Does anybody have an idea of doing the thing ?
TIA
