Here is the output of ifconfig hme0 :
hme0: flags=8a63<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,ALLMULTI,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

I tried that, and interestingly, when plugging my cable on link 1 and
selecting phy 1, it didn't work at all. The only combination that work
(read: which has ``status: active'' in ifconfig) is to use phy 0 with
link 0.
This makes me think more that it's a detection problem ; it makes no
doubt I have two real interfaces in this box, since under Solaris, I can
assign each an IP and they have different MAC addresses.
Feel free to ask me for any other relevant information.
Thanks,
