Re: Installing Sun Sparc Ultra 10
I'm running Debian unstable on an Ultra 5. Here is my lspci output:

It's got the built in ethernet card and I added an Intel 10/100 nic. They
both work, this box acts as my router/gateway. Maybe your riser card is to
blame? Have you tried another nic?
For the record, I don't have /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe either:
ultra:~# file /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe
/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe: can't stat `/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe' (No such
file or directory).
