Ah, you're looking to actually talk to the hardware, such as it is.
Sweet16's ethernet is implemented in its own way, using special COP
vector intercepts to pass ethernet requests into the Mac for handling
and retrieve the results. It's not something I'd be comfortable
exposing to others since it's prone to (and somewhat likely to) change
in the future.

As it stands, you can really only use it with the Marinetti link layer
