Ethernet hardware programming

Post by Frank M »

I am writing an OS, and I already have hard drives,
floppies, etc. hammered out. Now I need to write
drivers for ethernet cards (10-base-T and 100-base-TX,
possibly others) I know most amateur OS projects
have never gotten this far b/f, so I have been
unable to turn up anything of value. If anyone knows
of documentation available relating to what I mentioned,
please contact me. email: frankm29a(snip)@aol(snip).com

Look at the links at
http://www.acm.uiuc.edu/sigops/rsrc/

That should get you started on NE2000 stuff, and I
remember that 3com provides docs, but you might
have to request them(I forget).
