Re: IBM NetStation 1000 Platform

Hello,

> That is great, can you send-pr it please so that it does not get lost?

Have done so, but since I cannot attach code to the send-pr, I have simply put
a link to the new TWiki page I have set up for the IBM Network Station running
NetBSD on my web site:

http://www.bluedonkey.org/cgi-bin/twiki/bin/view/Netbsd/IBMNetworkStation1000

Let me know if you need more details, or a volunteer to maintain it ;-)

TTFN,
John...
