AFAICT, the FDNET package contains packet drivers for (16-bit?) NE2000 and
PCnet ethernet cards. The crynwr package has several dozen other packet
drivers. If we knew the exact Thinkpad model, we could advise you better.

First, sorry about all the notification messages.
Earlier today,
meaning that packet drivers are included in packages, or that I will need
to hunt them?
also, is there a install copy that lets me save items to floppies?

No, FreeDOS isn't special,
My goal is supporting the built in Ethernet infrastructure on the

Hi folks,
Due to some layered power issues in my new apartment, I am considering

metadata. This would also allow looking up update details in the
archives later.
