Dear Sir/Madam To make the 32-bit driver for Broadcom WiFi LAN for my new Compaq Presario C713TU Notebook PC, first I made the 32-bit kernel for OpenSolaris SXDE build 72 by editing the /boot/grub/mnu.lst as under:
(# commented lines) #----------ADDED BY ALOK - DO NOT EDIT----------- title Solaris Express Developer Edition snv_72 32 bits kernel$ /platform/i86pc/kernel/unix module$ /platform/i86pc/boot_archive #---------------------END ALOK------------------- This showed me a boot option on reboot, to enter into the 32-bit kernel. I booted into the 32-bit SXDE build 72 kernel and issued the following command in the terminal. # /usr/X11/bin/scanpci -v (OUTPUT) pci bus 0x0000 cardnum 0x00 function 0x00: vendor 0x8086 device
