[comp.realtime] Ethernet driver for MIZAR

trygg@nososl.UUCP (Trygg A. Eliassen) (06/21/91)

We have been running MIZAR\s port of vxWorks on IS68225 cards and have just
tried to switch to vxWorks 5.0.  Mizar promised this would be painless
but now we have discovered that the boot prom on these cards is too small
and that MIZAR haven't got a board support package after all. !  I converted
the old BSP we had myself, no tall that many changes required, and did
actually manage to boot the target, but then I discovered that the support
for the ethernet card we run had disappeared from vxworks.  I think what
I need is the driver called nwattach, and it should be in lib/netif.a in
a file if_nw.a

Alternatively does anybody know if the interface to xxattach has changed 
from vx 4.. to vx 5.0, because if it hasn't I could probably use the old one.
Then I would need the interrupt vector to be used.  Excelan is 192.

I would really like some help from MIZAR, but from previous experience
I am not to hopefull
