Update: [Qemu-devel] MS-DOS Network Client

[Andreas Krause]

A little update to my last posting:

Using the BIOS files included in the current release of bochs I was able to load both, the ne2000.dos in ISA mode and the pcind.dos for RTL8029(AS) in PCI mode. When loading pcind.dos the MAC address is displayed.

But: Both configuration aren't able to transmit a single packet. Using Linux or NT4.0 images with the same configuration of qemu and host OS networking works pretty fine. But no networking in DOS.

Any clue?

I think there is some problem with interrupts under Dos. When booting 
FreeDos (the image from freeoszoo) and choosing the config with the 
mouse driver (I think it's the emm386 one), then qemu hangs during the 
initialisation of the mouse driver in some emulation loop involving an 
IRQ.
