Yes, the Sun SBUS Sunswift Fast Ethernet, Fast+Wide SCSI card, part
number 501-2739, is supported under NetBSD 1.6.2. Here are the
autoconfig output lines from a NetBSD 1.6.2 kernel on an SS10 clone:
hme0 at sbus0 slot 0 offset 0x8c00000 level 4 (ipl 7): Sun Happy Meal
Ethernet (SUNW,hme)
hme0: Ethernet address 00:03:e3:c1:05:ae
nsphy0 at hme0 phy 1: DP83840 10/100 media interface, rev. 0
nsphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
esp1 at sbus0 slot 0 offset 0x8800000 level 3 (ipl 5): FAS366/HME,
40MHz, SCSI ID 7
scsibus1 at esp1: 16 targets, 8 luns per target
Note that these two devices are both in sbus0 slot 0; this Sun is
booted off a disk attached to that SCSI controller.
One thing: the connectors on this Sbus card are packed in tightly
because there isn't much space on the end-bezel of an Sbus card. Be
sure you have a cat-5 Ethernet cable and a 68-pin wide SCSI cable
connector that will fit attached to this card right next to each
other.
