If you are talking to me the answer is no. My YDL excursion has been a
complete failure. I don't know if I posted to the wrong list or if no
one has any ideas. I have one friend who runs YDL and another who is an
expert at Linux and they both were not able to help me either.
I pasted my message again below in case anyone missed it.
Cheers,

Did you ever get your Ethernet problem resolved? I just installed
4.0.1 on a B&W G3 and ran into the exact same problem.
I had previously written:
I just installed YDL 4.0.1 on a Rev A iMac. The install went fine.
When I booted after install there was no network interface on the
ifconfig list, just the loopback interfaces. I used the Network
control panel dealie and there was a device listed in the Hardware tab
called "GMAC (Sun GEM)" with status "ok". There was no device in the
device tab. I added an Ethernet device to the appropriate hardware
device, saved and clicked activate and I got the dreaded:
"sungem device eth0 does not seem to be present"
I have searched the web and the mail lists and could find no advice on
how to proceed. According to the YDL site the network card in this
computer is supported. I have no idea how to make the eth0 device show
up in ifconfig. The Network system setting application seems to think
it is there and "ok". I have tried editing, adding, deleting hardware
and devices and restarting the network and rebooting and such to no
avail.
What to do?
Thanks!
