contributing a AM79C970A 16bit driver to wiki but cannot

Hello,

I am wanting to write an article for the wiki about making a driver for the AMD PCnet II, the article stub on wiki is about the driver for use in protected mode while my driver is for the card in real mode. My driver works with Virtual Box in a bridged ethernet state I have not tried it on the physical hardware, how should I proceed, I wouldn't want to overwrite the article since we would be explaining the same device but in different modes of operation.

Sorry to sound noobish about how things work around here, I just found this website and fourm and want to contribute to Hobby OS's .

You could make a subpage (Add "/SubPageNameHere" to the end of the page name, such as "AMD_PCNET/Sub_Page") for it and post your info/code/tutorial/findings/what have you there.

Ok I think I get it. Sorry never really used a wiki to document things before. Thanks for the help.
