Thanks for all the quick responses. I did foll.
1. boot net -sw
This brings to single user mode.
2. Mount/ftp the directory which contains the SUNWqfe and SUNWqfed
packages. Mount the /, /usr and /var partitions on /tmp/somewhere
Add these packages to that mount (/tmp/somewhere)
3. Reboot and qfe can be accessed properly.

Folks,
I reinstalled Solaris 2.5.1 on one of our E10k domains.
I installed the full Development package (which includes
networking and NIS). However when the system boots up it
does not recognise the qfe ports. For qfe0, ifconfig plumb says
iconfig: plumb: qfe0: no such interface
I am connected to the E10k through an SSP console. When the
OS is being installed, I can plumb and unplumb the interface.
Pls help.
+Ravi.

I just ran into this while installing a new Ultra 1. It appears 2.5.1 does
not have the qfe drivers installed by default. You need to add packages
SUNWqfe and SUNWqfed, worked for me.

David Thorburn-Gundlach replied:
You should have gotten the SUNQqfed and SUNWqfedu drivers with your
QFE cards, but I don't know that the E10K comes with separate QFE
cards for which a CD might be supplied :-) Those are the packages you
seek; since you can see them when the OS is being loaded, you should
be able to find them on your CD.

Check for patches on SunSolve. The qfe interface was developed after
2.5.1, and there have been a number of problems with the drivers on those
interfaces.
