I don't think the Amiga 1200 PCMIA slot hardware actually supports CardBus. Ah, according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardbus, the different notch prevents you from inserting CardBus cards into 16-bit slots? Can you actually insert the card in your Amiga (withour forcing :-)? > > Does your PCMCIA network card work under AmigaOS? > > I don't know, or even how to tell as I am very unfamiliar with AmigaOS. > Running amiboot is about the extent of my AmigaOS knowledge :) OK. If it's not an Amiga-branded card or a generic PCMCIA NE2000 card, I'm afraid there won't be an AmigaOS driver anyway.
