Neal,

A few additional points ...

1. I was installing OpenSolaris Developer Edition 2007-09
2. I did an install and booted to the OS
3. Basically I noticed some errors on boot related to devices not getting 
detected, then later there were warnings. Sorry, I am going by memory now, and 
I don't remember the exact messages. In the future I can provide additional 
info if I try to re-install. Hopefully the info supplied above is sufficient.

At this point networking was down, and I didn't feel like struggling with it 
any further. I have enough Solaris experience that I could likely fix this, if 
it's possible, but I was expecting to NOT have to go through that hassle. 
Especially when Indiana is coming out in a couple of weeks, and that build 
includes many additional things I want. (ZFS boot partition yada, yada)

Plus, I remember in my company we used to keep a box of 3COM905b's if we were 
building Solaris instead of having to go through the hassle of adding 
additional drivers during install.  It saved a ton of hassle.

Bill
