Sunday September 14, 2008 Mini PCI /PCI E card problems ...
And of course the first network card I ordered was a mini PCI card not a mini PCIE card ... yuk .. I hate stuff like this - it should all just work ! - and I wonder why my mum can't use the computer.
Anyway I won't make that mistake again. I've ordered an Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG card which is apparently supported in OpenSolaris as of build 64 - hopefully this will work ok. $30 from the Dell site - it could have been worse. Also ordered 4x4GB usb sticks so that I can try installing and running off z ZFS pool spread across them - not too bad - they were only $4 each on amazon - quite the deal.
