Clarification:

The install was needing three drivers to be loaded:
1.) QLogic SBUS ISP (qlogicpti)
2.) Sun ESP
3.) Sun HME.

The pop-up from Anaconda didn't tell me that I needed to load them in that 
order; the HME (last!) because I was doing a vnc install.

Is autoprobe supposed to work on these SBUS boxes?  The device driver prompt 
isn't intuitive; it doesn't say 'I need the driver for the device where the 
install media is' then 'I need the driver for the network device for the VNC 
method'.....

And if I load the HME driver before the Qlogicpti driver, I don't get any 
storage devices to install to....(that is, it doesn't prompt me for any more 
drivers once the HME is loaded).
