Im guessing here: Did you try to install the package SUNWips in the LIVE installer mini Solaris ?
Presumably one could : Directly after the Graphic installer screen shows up after booting from the DVD; Right click the background an start a CDE terminal window. look in /dev/rdsk to verify what devices are there. cd to the directory ../Solaris10/Product/ on the DVD pkgadd -d ./SUNWips do a modload on whatever the drivers name is. then do a devfsadm to try to rediscover all devices. check /dev/rdsk for any change Then continue the menu based installtion. This is just a brainstorm it probably wont work ...... //Lars This message posted from opensolaris.org
