   Full SATA HBA (Native mode) support is in the works. Current SATA
   support in Solaris is limited to controllers operaing in a compatibility
   mode - i.e. emulating generic parallel ATA interface. Most of the SATA
   functionality is not available in this mode.

   You can try installing the open-source network drivers by Masayuki
   Murayama available at:
   http://homepage2.nifty.com/mrym3/taiyodo/eng/

   These add support for a lot of additional nw cards.  BeleniX includes
   these drivers by default.

Moinak.
