[comp.os.minix] Status of V1.3 - ethernet task

lmjm@doc.ic.ac.uk (Lee McLoughlin) (05/15/88)

If you had been slavishly installing the new bits from Mr T.  then
you would have found the one that does indeed add another process to
h/com.h for etherneting.

From memory:
#define ETHERNET -9
... more defines ... mentions LANCE ...

Unfortunetly that was all there was to it.

After all in a multi task kernel how would you expect a new feature to be
added?

Oops!  Sorry about that.  More networking stuff in due course.  That
particular code isn't even there any more.
