Bug#306476: quick question about Bug#306476
Hi Frans,
The output of prtconf is attached. I've also attached a chunk of the
syslog which shows the ethernet cards. This particular system (for
reasons unknown to me- it was a hand-me-down) has about 7 ethernet ports
and a dozen scsi interfaces. One bunch of ethernet ports is a group of
4- a "quad"? So if a SunQuad is 4x Quattro HME, then perhaps the answer
is yes- this system has a SunQuad. But I'm really not sure. There is
also a port on the back which is the same size as a normal RJ45 ethernet
port, but doesn't have the usual litte TP <---> symbol above it.
Cheers,
Randall.

OK, I grabbed the latest (March 14th) etch network installer from the
link location below. I ran the installer with debconf/priority=medium
as requested. The CDROM detection worked, as did detection of the
sunhme (happy meal) network cards.
Thanks for confirming that.
There was one non-fatal error:
during the detect/mount cd phase, an error message saying "Error while
running 'modprobe -v sunqe'" appeared. This was non-fatal.
OK. This must be because there is a line in the output of prtconf that
matches the following line in the list of possible sbus devices:
SUNW,qfe:SunQuad SBus Ethernet:sunqe
(The part before the first ":" is used for matching.)
Can you send us the output of the prtconf command?
Do you have any idea if a SunQuad Ethernet device actually is present on
your system or what else this line in prtconf could refer to?
Anyway, as you say the error is non-fatal. Most important is that the
CD-ROM is now detected correctly.
Cheers,
FJP
