Need e1000 driver. (scsi driver does not work). Ide works out of the box. disabling the mpbios is not needed. Done with Linux 2.6.34.2 host kernel.

Use the e1000 driver [-net nic,model=e1000]. Does not find the network after the installation (during install is fine) but disabling mpbios as suggested in 4.5 workaround fixes it.

Use the e1000 driver [-net nic,model=e1000] to avoid lockups and slow network speeds. Crashes after "setting tty flags" - Jaco van der Schyff
4.0 would hang on me at the same place if i booted /bsd.mp but not if i boot /bsd (uniprocessor kernel) - Buck
4.5 can be made to boot by disabling mpbios as described here; this is a workaround though, not a fix - Maxim

Use e1000 drivers. Install from CD works, but then you must do the following at the next boot prompt: "bsd -c", "disable mpbios", then "quit"
Make this permanent by using "config -ef /bsd" as root, once everything has booted. -- Garry Dolley

later releases will detect the CPU is 64 bit capable and try to default to run a 64 bit kernel and fail, for those you have to override Solaris autodetection by adding "kernel/unix" to the kernel multiboot entry in GRUB
