I have an A3000, 16M/2M, 2.1GB that is currently running NetBSD-1.0.
Before I upgrade to 1.1, I would like to get an ethernet card. My
questions are:
Of the cards supported by 1.1:
a.) Which drivers are the most mature/stable?
b.) Which driver/card combo offers the best performance?
(for NFS, ftp, rdump, remote X etc.)
c.) Which cards (regardless of NetBSD drivers) perform best?
and finally (and most important),
d.) Which cards are most readily available?
I have been searching high and low for an A2065 with no luck, I am now
ready to consider just about any card that will work with NetBSD. I just
wanted to get some opinions about the preferred route to take here.
Thanks alot in advance,
Garth Corral.
