I have a Sparc Ultra 1 which has been running flawlessly since 2003 running Ansel 2.4.20-2.3sparc.
 
Last week after a nine day power outage the system no longer activates eth0, the TPE ethernet interface.
 
I installed a -->
 
Sun 501-5443 x1049A quad 4-port SBus Fast Ethernet card
 
The operating system does not recognize this new hardware.
 
This system has been running so flawlessly for at least four years that I have forgotten much of what I had learned about Aurora.(I am an elderly man by high tech standards).
 
The little green input light corresponding to the port to which I have attached the fast ethernet cable does illuminate.
 
Where do I start?
