Hi - FYI:
I ported the freebsd 'pcn' and 'ex' drivers to RTEMS
- 'ex' supports the (quite old) intel 'eepro 10' / i82595 chip.
Board-level support only for pc586 BSP and ISA cards
implemented.
- 'pcn' supports the AMD 'pcnet' chip based PCI cards
(79c973 + similar). I fixed endianness issues and made
it work on powerpc ('shared' + derived BSPs). Should
also work on pc586 [maybe with minor mods to accommodate
for differences in PCI and IRQ APIs].
- I had begun porting 'lnc' but then realized that 'pcn' was
what I wanted. I abandoned 'lnc' due to address space
restrictions. If someone needs to support the original
'lance' chip - I have at least something to get you started...
HTH
