Warner, thanks for this.
Might be a while before I can do anything with it, being too broke and
busy to even put a new box together at the moment, but it looks neat!
Dare I ask, at a tangent ..
I've some hopes of one day beating something like the old labpc driver
into shape to support at least some functions of my old ACL-812PG card
(ADclone's PCL-812PG), which I've so far managed to run in polling mode
off a (virtualised) system timer interrupt in an OS/2 DOS box, in Turbo
Pascal rendered from ADclone's crappy example C DOS drivers, no less :-)
My C experience is mostly readonly, but I can follow it and have (still
after 30 years) a reasonably good head for hardware coding of underlying
devices. Getting a driver going for access at say a perl or rexx level
would be really handy for some environmental monitoring (weather mostly)
projects that have lingered on the backburner for some years here - and
using CF with a not-so-pico -small system is looking like the go ..
Is the labpc the only vaguely similar sort of driver for ISA AtoD sorts
of cards that I might use as guidance? Might it still likely work as is
in a freebsd -3 or -4 environment? An URL or two would be real handy ..
Cheers, Ian

Hi,
I've been looking at PicoBSD and was hoping to set it
up on a low-spec box I have here as a Firewall NAT
solution. I have been reading about and following
FreeBSD for some years now but have never installed
it. I figured I'd start small (with PicoBSD). I have
managed to install PicoBSD into a box with an NE2000
card in it. I'm fairly sure I have the card
configured correctly, but I have no idea how to set up
an IP address or related details for the card. Is it
recommended that I install FreeBSD 4 so that I can at
least have a way to edit the PicoBSD configuration
files on the floppy or is there some way to read the
floppy from Windows? I have the 'the complete FreeBSD
' book by Greg Lehey, but it hasn't been much use to
me in so far as setting up PicoBSD.
I'm looking to set up a configuration that I can
telnet to and dial my ISP and connect through the
PicoBSD box with other machines to the internet. Any
suggestions warmly appreciated.
Please CC me when replying as I am not subscribed to
the list (I only read the archives every couple of
days).
Thanks,
Paul

It depends on the floppy ... some have an editor in it (ee, usually) and
can mount the floppy.

I picked the 'network' floppy. As I noticed in the
specs page that it contained NATD. I think I'll need
this to connect all my other machines at home through
one PPP connection to my provider. The specs page
also doesn't list EE as being on this disk. I also
have never used EE before. I did a seach on the
searchable man pages on www.freebsd.org under
3.0-current and it didn't return any hints. Where can
I find some info about using this editor. I still
don't know how to apply IP details to my netcard
either.
Thanks.

From: Future Beacon
93% WHO RESPOND TO MY AD DON'T MAKE THE CUT!
(Only highly motivated people should call)
I'm dead serious! Now let me tell you why...
Most people don't have drive! They sit around waiting for something to happen.
They see that other people have nice homes, new cars, and MONEY, but why can't they?
They basically feel sorry for themselves, and I can't help these people!
Another reason people are not qualified...
They are skeptical. BUT, the truth is, they are skeptical of themselves!
They don't have the courage to break their routine.
They are comfortable with their set hours, their set pay, and their set future.
I was not comfortable with someone controlling my future,
and I'm not comfortable working with people who are!
STOP
If you are anything like the above, we won't be able to work together!
WHAT DO THE 7% WHO DO MAKE THE CUT DISCOVER?!
People I select through an "interview like" process are forever changed!
They are opened to a world around them that they didn't know existed.
In fact, it's a world that has existed around them their whole lives,
but was purposely hidden from them!
How would you like to...
- Drastically reduce personal, business and capital gains taxes?
- Protect all assets from any form of seizure, liens, or judgments?
- Create a six figure income every 4 months?
How about...
Restoring and preserving complete personal and financial privacy?
Amassing personal wealth, multiplying it and protecting it?
Realizing a 3 to 6 times greater return on your money?
Legally making yourself and your assets completely judgment-proof,
lien-proof, divorce-proof, attorney-proof, IRS-proof?
I could go on...
TAKE A SERIOUS LOOK AT YOUR LIFE
Do you think you are paid what you are worth?
Will you be set to retire in the next few years?
Do you control the course of your day? ...your life?
The fact is we have many people in our enterprise that earn over 50K per month
from the privacy of their own homes, and are retiring in 2 to 3 years (wealthy)
and have total freedom - both personal and financial!
Many have been conditioned to believe it must be illegal, immoral or unethical
to ever earn any real profits from our efforts.
The sad truth is, it's been designed that way by the ultra-rich
and ultra-powerful since before any of us were born!
Who am I?
I'm a BIG thinker, a BIG dreamer, and I believe that I deserve the best that life has to offer.
I answered an ad much like the one you are reading now,
and was eager to hear what it was about.
I knew that I couldn't invest only a few bucks and spend an hour or two
per week to achieve the results I was looking for. I found the right information
and now I control my own destiny!
If you are interested in radically changing your thoughts and your financial future,
I invite you to call TOLL FREE:
1 800 707 4817
My name is Krystina, and I look forward to working with some of you!

I can't do it for you, but I can show you exactly how I do it.
It's as simple as that!

I was just wondering if anyone here has tried using an Advantech
PCM-3112 PCMCIA PC/104 module with FreeBSD. I'm hoping to use it with
FreeBSD 4.1 on an Advantech SBC, primarily with modem and ethernet
PCMCIA cards. Anyone doing anything like this?

I've used two other PCMCIA PC/104 modules with FreeBSD, both based on
the Vadem 469 chipset. I don't know if one of them was the advantech
pcm-3112 or not (I didn't write down who made it and it was long ago
enough that I've forgotten). The other 469 based board is no longer
made and Timing Solutions is looking for a good replacement that fits
some rather strange mounting requirements (given that's it in a legacy
system).

The version IDs are unmaintained. The newest is always in the CVS tree in

Make sure you mount the actual floppy and not edit the in-memory copy,
which is simply on a ramdisk.

gateway_enable="YES" is required for natd to operate, but it doesn't start
natd.
If you're using ppp, you want to use the -alias or -nat option
anyway; trying to get natd to DTRT with tun0 is a pain.

Thanks Doug.
I've had no exposure to CVS. I suppose I'll have read
up on it. is there anywhere I can get newer disk
images ready to go?
As far as the kernel configuration goes, I'm not
editing files directly to do this (I don't know what
files to edit and what goes in them anyway). I'm
using the 'Visual configuration manager' that an
option comes up for each time on boot. I assume this
creates a file that the generic PicoBSD kernel runs
against when properly initialising? I know how to
mount the floppy but I just need to know what files to
copy to it.
I managed to get natd lke functionality going on the
dial version. Thanks.
