Re: uthernet emulation on OS X?

[Jonno Downes <jonnosan@gmail.com>]

Hi Sheppy,

Can you clarify what you mean by "ethernet support with it's own
driver?" Does that mean you are emulating an ethernet device that is
different to uthernet?

If so, what is the emulated device, and are there docs on how to
interface with it from the A2 side?

My motivation here is to do some more work on my 'netboot65' project
( http://netboot65.sourceforge.net/ ), specifically port some of the
current c64 only apps to A2 (i.e. telnet with vt100 emulation &
httpd ) If the emulated ethernet in Sweet16 is something different to
the cs8900a used by uthernet (and RR-NET on the c64) that's probably
OK as I should be able to isolate the differences to a NIC driver. But
it would need to be something that looks(to code running on the
emulated Apple) like some kind of ethernet device.

Is the manual online? I am at work on a PC right now so can''t look
inside the dmg file.

Cheers

Jonno
