Here are some findings which might be interesting either for the documentation/FAQ or for further development: Neither on WfW3.11 nor on Windows NT4 I was able to get networking going with the NE2000 drivers that are part of those OSes. By reading the qemu sources I found out that "Realtek 8029" was mentioned there so I "googled" for those drivers and found some for WfW 3.11 as well as NT4 (actually NT4 has them on the distro). Using these drivers worked on boths OSes. I also have an OS/2 Warp 4 installed. Networking didn't work with NE2000 either. I have _not_ yet tried the realtek there, not even sure wheter a realtek driver exists for OS/2 but in case somebody is really struggling, you might give it a try. If I find the time to test it I'll certainly report the results here. -- Friedemann Baitinger
