Hello, 


There is two week ago, I've installed OpenSolaris (CD) on an old computer. 
Today, I've new hardware for my OpenSolaris. The simple way, for me, to install 
OpenSolaris on this new tower is to pick up the hard drive and put it on the 
new one :-).

After that, OpenSolaris start, but some hardware isn't found. For exemple : I 
can't reach the internet, because the driver of my NIC is not installed. I've 
used "Device Driver Utility" (gnome) to cheat a little and see faster what's 
going wrong. I've constated that 2 drivers are missing : network and RAID (not 
used). The network interface is integrated in the motherboard and has not been 
detected because OpenSolaris has been installed on an other machine...


So now, my future job is to be a good admin in Solaris ... I want to install 
the missing driver to reach the internet, but I don't know how must I proced. 
Is there a place where to find all driver ? (cd? on the net? like portage for 
Gentoo, like apt-get with theire repository ?). Where to find it ? And how to 
do ? Compiling driver is needed ? And about the commande line to use ? I don't 
want to install this driver wich a GUI tools, it will be to easy and not really 
intersting...


Any help would be appreciated :-)
