The 3C589 is a PCMCIA card, the 3C905B is a PCI card, they're
not really equivalent. The 3C905B will work OK with Plan 9, as
does the 3C589 Megahertz equivalent (sorry, I don't remember the
exact model number).

I am trying to build a Plan9 cpu/auth/file server (all in a single box). Is
it possible?
At the end of the document titled "Installing the Plan 9 Distribution", it
says:
"The kfs patches are currently being soaked and may appear before long."
Are the details available? Can someone tell me how I can do it?
Thanks
dharani

Isn't the 3c589 a PCMCIA card?

Just a quick question. Would the
3Com 3C905B-TX PCI NIC card be a good choice
for a Plan9 system? Anything better?
The 3C589 doesn't seem to be offered
anymore.
