I think a 3c509 series is a ISA card, I don't think this will fit into a
sparcbook pcmcia slot......

Hmm, as far as I know the only PCMCIA network cards supported by Solaris
2.5.1 are the 3c509 and some Wavelan device, nothing else. 
Anyway, to recognize hardware try <drivers>, should be in /usr/sbin, the
device name for the 3c509 would be pcel0 or pcel1, depending on the slot
it is plugged in.
