invalid mac address



hi all,
I put a Linksys PCI network card in my Sunblade 150, running etch.
kgoetz@horatius:~$ uname -a
Linux horatius 2.6.18-4-sparc64 #1 Mon Mar 26 11:16:07 UTC 2007 sparc64
GNU/Linux

When restarting the network i get this output:
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
Failed to bring up eth1.
done.

Does this mean this card/all pci cards are not supported on sparc64?
nics not working is a killer for me - i want this to act as a
proxy/server system for my network.

Below is ifcofig and my interfaces file.

PS, is not having lspci expected?
