OpenSolaris on Hyper-V RC0 networking

I got OpenSolaris 2008.05 to install on Hyper-V by forcing it into the 32-bit kernel (I am hoping this gets fixed at some point). However, I cannot figure out how to get the legacy network adapter working. dnet0 shows up in ifconfig and dladm and it appears to be working, however I cannot get a dhcp lease or get packets to flow through the interface. Anyone have any ideas?

Yes. dnet is the dec net 21140 driver. It could be a Solaris issue with their driver. I saw someone posted a solaris bug:

The legacy adaptor is a DEC (or Intel) 21140. Do you have a driver for that as part of your Solaris installation?
