Instead of reinstalling..
I know it takes a ***long*** time..

try running
Code:
sys-unconfig
This essentially lets you re-configure the name and all the
network settings..

I saw that you mentioned OpenSolaris..
If you machine works on OpenSolaris.. then I would probably stay with it..
Reason:
Solaris is free for downoad but support (IMHO) is rather sparse
if you don't have a SunSolve account (i.e paid account)

just my ramblings..
oh.. the tips the other posters were also very correct..

also check your dmesg to see if the nic was detected..

plumb.. what a funny concept..
hme = happy meal ethernet..
