Sender: owner-hackers@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Question: What (or where can I find?) what the port assignments do for some of the popular I/O ports out in the world. I am looking for serial and more importantly the ethernet port. If I state the base address as 0x300 for a NE2000 clone, what ports are used and for what? is 300 read=data in write-data out? or is it a control port? Thanks. S.
