Thanks for the tip. I gave up and installed 5.0MP1 with the provided fix
for e1000g interfaces. I wanted to upgrade sometime soon anyway...why
not now?

I remember I had to modify a Perl module that came with SFS so it would
bypass checking the validity of the device name and get the installation
going. Once the installation was complete, I had to modify the
/etc/llttab to change the device name to the right ones.

However I don't remember the file name for the Perl module. What you may
want to do is go take a look at the 'installer' script and find it's way
to the Perl module that checks the device name.

5.0, it does not work with 4.1 and the filename and README only indicate
support for 5.0. Has anyone found a way around this with 4.1?
