in NEWS/Software there was an anouncement about some native pcmcia drivers
for OS4 and MOS, there was for 3c589 cards and prism wireless cards.
but the provided link is not working anymore.
Does anyone knows if there is an alternative link that I can download these drivers?
or maybe anyone can send them to me?

The installer script will probably install the PPC version, which only supports PCI cards, so you should manually install the 68k version.
The beta drivers have been removed because they didn't work.

AFAIK these are all 68k but modified to work correctly on MOS and OS4.
Thanks anyway

Thanks for the clarification, I managed to install the 68k version of prism2.device and finally it worked. Now I'm writing this from my OS4 setup.
I'm dissapointed thought that we must rely on 68k code for critical components as drivers.

If you're prepared to do some testing, I could probably send you a PPC test version or two later this month. Email me if you're interested.
