I found that Ubuntu 8.04 has a build for Sparc. When I was loading it on my SunFire V120, I saw this via the dmesg...
sungem.c:v0.98 8/24/03 David S. Miller (davem@redhat.com) PCI: Enabling device: (0000:01:0c.1), cmd 146 PHY ID: 437421, addr: 1 eth0: Sun GEM (PCI) 10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet 00:03:ba:36:34:48 eth0: Found Generic MII PHY PHY ID: 437421, addr: 1 eth1: Sun GEM (PCI) 10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet 00:03:ba:36:34:49 eth1: Found Generic MII PHY
So it seems the driver for the eri(x) NICs is the sungem. So, is it possible to load this driver via the 'boot net linux...' upon a netinstall for CentOS? Because right now this driver is not being installed via the tftp64.img for Sparc builds.

Read the source, Luke! boot net vnc vncconnect=192.168.1.50 ip=dhcp ksmethod=http://localrepo/centos/5/os/sparc/ lang=en_GB keymap=uk<
But, it needs to be fixed.
