An AOS ext2 driver would be nice, too,
My Ariadne (1, not 2) came with a SANA-II driver floppy. Just found https://github.com/obarthel/amiga-sana-ii-tftpclient If you find the Ariadne2 SANA-II driver, that should allow you to use tftp. BTW, I still have AmiTCP on the AmigaOS side.

But it will be slooooooooooooow... It will make you long for tunneling TFTP through SSH from a remote board in Japan (been there, done that ;-) > I have a bag of 100MB IDE-flash disks lying around, time to make use of them > and turn on the A2k again... maybe somebody has already built a Zorro card > where we can mount a RasPi as a coprocessor, RAM disk, or control board? > Ah, the possibilities, if only there was more time ;-) Hey, I wanted to do something similar with a C64, and DMA from a Pi through the C64 cartridge port ;-) Gr{oetje,eeting}s, Geert -- Geert Uytterhoeven -- There's lots of Linux beyond ia32 -- ge...@linux-m68k.org In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker.
