Issue Description: 

By manufacturing default, the Sun Netra t1 Server OBP env parameter
pcib-probe-list was set to 1,2 which means that only devices 1 and 2 
on the bus are probed and enabled, thus, only the ebus and the first
ethernet device are enabled.  The second ethernet port device 3, be-
comes disabled by default.  

The above mentioned problem can be identified on a Sun Netra t1 Server
from the OK prompt, by typing 'show-devs', if the following error is
displayed:

          Unable to find `/pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/network@3,1'

The Netra t1 Server does not recognize the second ethernet device. 

During the manufacturing and testing process the pcib-probe-list is
set to 1,2,3 thus, the second ethernet device is enabled.  Then at
the end of the system test, a script performs a 'set-defaults' on
the obp parameters, which returns the second ethernet device to the
disabled state.  As a result, hme1 is not probed and the second ether-
net port is therefore not added to the device tree.

In response to the above mentioned problem, the Manufacturing test
process has been ammended to NOT 'set-defaults' with pcib-probe-list 
set to 1,2,3.  All subsequent shipments from Aug/11/99 will be cor-
rected.

Implementation: 

---
        |   |   MANDATORY (Fully Pro-Active)
         ---    
         
  
         ---
        |   |   CONTROLLED PRO-ACTIVE (per Sun Geo Plan) 
         --- 
         
                                
         ---
        | X |   REACTIVE (As Required)
         ---

Corrective Action: 

Enterprise Customers and Enterprise Field Service Representatives that
receive early shipments of Sun Netra t1 Servers (with ship dates prior 
to Aug/11/99) may correct the above mentioned disabled second ethernet
device by following the recommendation as shown below:

	1. Log in as/su to root

	2. Type the following three lines:

	eeprom pcib-probe-list=1,2,3
	eeprom output-device=ttya
	eeprom input-device=ttya

	3. Reboot
