What always worked for me was using "dmesg" right after the machine has been booted, it should give you some hints on the detected devices. Another (IMO a little crude) option would be to tell ifconfig to plumb all available devices. LionO at 2007-7-5 18:22:42 >

You can use 'ifconfig -a plumb' to have all interfaces with valid drivers be plumbed up.-- Darren Darren_Dunham at 2007-7-5 18:22:42 >
