23   Basilisk II has currently been ported to the following systems:

327    BeOS:
328      It doesn't matter what you give as "ethernet card description", Basilisk II
329      will always use the first Ethernet card it finds as long an an "ether"

334  
335    Linux:
336      The "ethernet card description" is the name of an Ethernet interface.

352           configure your kernel to enable routing and the ethertap device:
353           under "Networking options", enable "Kernel/User netlink socket" and
354           "Netlink device emulation", under "Network device support", activate

356           a bit before compiling the new kernel:
357  
358            - insert "#define CONFIG_ETHERTAP_MC 1" near the top (after the

383           (instead of the ones given in the example above).
384  
385 +  FreeBSD:
386 +    The "ethertap" method described above also works under FreeBSD, but since
387 +    no-one has found the time to write a section for this manual, you're on
388 +    your own here...

390    AmigaOS:
391      You have to specify the name of the SANA-II Ethernet device and the device
392      unit as "<device name>/<unit>" (e.g. "ariadne.device/0"). If the given
