Hmm. Is it possible that the OP meant to write Bmac instead of Gmac???!!!!

I noticed that I still had my old /etc/modprobe.conf~ file and this is
the file's contents:

alias snd-card-0 dmasound_pmac
alias eth0 bmac
install dmasound_pmac /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install dmasound_pmac &&
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove dmasound_pmac { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ;
}; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove dmasound_pmac

Note: you can simply edit this file with nano:
su
nano /etc/modprobe.conf
