Greetings,
I've got a SS1 w/ SunOS 4.1.4 on it. Soon, it will be NetBSD!
But, I've got a little problem. When it boots up, the bootbios
claims that the ethernet address is FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. We had
a problem a few years ago when a power outage/surge took out the
eeprom, and we had it replaced (its the newest looking chip on
the board!) Looks like it happened again (this machine has been
off for a long time now). Can I just replace the chip? How
much and where can I get one?
Thanx,
Nate
