This is normal for Sun machines, the MAC addr is stored in the motherboard's
eeprom; there's no storage on the ethernet boards for this.

I'm not sure, the SS2 I have here are clones, and the SIMMs may be different.
I've been able to pull the SIMMS out with a screwdriver between the simm
and the socket, to escape the socket's lock of the SIMM hole.
But maybe just pushing on them will be enouth ?
