- You can use NDIS (see advanced installation options in the manual) instead. It will
- eat some more memory, but there are no LLDK (Link Level Drivers) for other cards
- than the ones listed in NFSCONF available at this time.

- The files needed for NDIS (protocol.ini,elnk3.dos) are on the 3C509 floppy :
-
- (read slash as backslash) /mslanman.dos/drivers/ethernet/elnk3
-
- With PCNFS 4.0 refer to the QUIKNDIS diskette for more info on NDIS and how to do
- a quick installation.
