The home of MagiCNet

Here is my port of MiNTNet to MagiC. Despite the sometimes huge differences between MagiC and MiNT

the port was not too hard to be done and the compatibility is high. Of course talking about compatibility,

I mean on the 'sockets' level, not at kernels level. This means that programs using MiNT-only features need

recompiling, others that are based on the sockets library are binary compatible (eg aMail, aFTP).

 

Developers should check this page.

 

04 Nov 2001: MagiCNet's serial ports handling is now compatible with MagiC 6.20, please use all

programs/drivers from the new distribution.

 

08 May 2001: MagiCNet now passes a MiNT compatible kernel structure to the loadable interfaces,

most ethernet drivers should work now by just renaming them to <driver>.MIF. Feedback is highly

welcomed since I don't have the hardware to test all of them.

There are many people to thank for their support for our platform but for this project special thanks should go
