Re: [Freedos-user] Connectivity (ethernet card drivers)
Hi Eric, You understood well, but i already have some drivers for the ethernet card, and the question is: as they are for win32 will they work on freedos? what kind of extension do they should have and, how do i install a driver?. I am asking you for intructions since beginning, becouse i have never intalled a driver on any dos, i have only just flirted with its file system and file management commands plus a litle from win xp, and of course some batch. I just want to crawl a litle the web in command line just as that, and try arachne and lynx of course. I hope those networking gurus read this message, or that you be one of them. Julio.

They have verbose documentation but maybe somebody can give a short example of what command you want in config/autoexec. - a network driver for some Atheros L2 100mbps network card What do you want to do with the network then? Browse the web, using Arachne? I think that also contains a mini mail client? Luckily there are some DOS networking gurus on this list :-) Eric no clue how to configure it, consecuense: rw cd/dvd rom unaccesible, freedos intalled, ethernet card: Atheros L2 fast ethernet 10/100 Base-t, the drivers are for windows, i still did not tryed to use them on freedos, and i barely know how to. -- uberSVN's rich system and user administration capabilities and model configuration take the hassle out of deploying and managing Subversion and the tools developers use with it.

Certainly NOT! You would of course need DOS drivers. Windows drivers, not only for network cards but for any other device (display cards, printers, scanners, etc). Windows (as it is the last +10 years) is a totally different operating system, just like Linux or Mac OS and you can't use those driver neither...

Okay, you have a Atheros L2 nic. Congrats! Thanks to the great guys at http://netbootdisk.com/ we have a working NDIS driver for that. I already extracted it for you to this place: http://lazybrowndog.net/ATL2 So please download the driver. We will make it act like a packet driver in FreeDOS. If you like to understand what you are doing, please read my description of how to get NDIS drivers to work with DOS at: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/freedos/index.php?title=Networking_FreeDOS_-_NDIS_driver_installation In short just follow these instructions: 1. Make a directory C:\NET 2. Copy the downloaded file L2.DOS into C:\NET 3. Get the first disk of the free MS Client from Microsoft: ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/Clients/MSCLIENT/DSK3-1.EXE 4. Save the file DSK3-1.exe to an empty directory for instance: C:\TEST 5. Run DSK3-1.exe. It will unzip all the files into the empty folder C:\TEST. 6. Two of the files needed are still compressed. Uncompress them by running these two commands inside C:\TEST: expand -r protman.do_ expand -r protman.ex_ 7. Copy the three files protman.dos, protman.exe and netbind.com from C:\TEST to C:\NET. Afterwards you may delete C:\TEST. 8. Create a file with the name PROTOCOL.INI inside the C:\NET directory. Edit it and fill in the following lines: [protman] DriverName=PROTMAN$ [ATL2] DriverName=ATL2$ [PKTDRV] drivername=PKTDRV$ bindings=ATL2 intvec=0x60 chainvec=0x68 9. Add these lines to the end of your fdconfig.sys: DEVICEHIGH=C:\NET\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\NET DEVICEHIGH=C:\NET\L2.DOS DEVICEHIGH=C:\FDOS\BIN\DIS_PKT.DOS 10. Add this line to your autoexec.bat: C:\NET\NETBIND.COM 11. Reboot. You should now have a working packet driver for your nic. Ulrich PS: Loading the above ndis/packet driver shim consumes of course more memory than a native packet driver. Unfortunately I couldn't find such a native packet driver for the Atheros L2. You might want to search yourself to be sure. -- FREE DOWNLOAD - uberSVN with Social Coding for Subversion. Subversion made easy with a complete admin console.
