Hi Frans,

previously I got the firmware directly from the site above and simply
did a wget to put it into the /lib/firmware directory.

As of now I did what Patrick suggested and ran: apt-get install
firmware-linux-nonfree

It still didn't work :-(

Hi Kaya,

That's clear. For me, just to be sure, what does these two do?

# ifconfig eth1 192.168.2.116 up
# ping 192.168.2.116


I am getting icmp echo responses.

I rejigged the interface to sit inside a new vlan:

while similar config on eth0 works fine.....



Check your settings with # ifconfig again. And does # update-initramfs
also complains about the missing firmware files, as asked?


update-initramfs -u
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-sparc64


Thanks,
