By onboard ethernet I take it you mean the ethernet port on the first
I/O board?
A device will not show in ifconfig -a if it is not configured.
Have you configured it through /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname.hme0?
What happens if you manually configure the port?
ifconfig hme0 plump
ifconfig hme0 192.9.200.1 up
Have you reconfigured the system?
touch /reconfigure - then reboot
Regards,
Mike
