Hello Derek and Paul,
ELKS is indeed still SLIP capable :
https://github.com/elks-org/elks/issues/304
One has just to change the command line of 'ktcp' to remove Ethernet and
put back SLIP.
Documentation is quite outdated. Georges made an effort to document
Ethernet and some other things while debugging networking features, but
there are still many legacy documents that need to be reorderer and updated.
Thanks,
MFLD

So what happened to SLIP support in ELKS? 8-bit ISA ethernet cards
(with RJ-45 connector) are very rare (I have only one of them, work nicely
under FreeDOS and in theory it should be supported by ELKS's ne2k driver,
but it isn't). Within my one more XT machine to play with ELKS, serial
port is the only means of external communication. PPP/IP or SLIP is
something ELKS should definitely have IMHO.
Cheers,
Paul

Does elks/Documentation/text/networking_guide.txt make
elks/Documentation/text/networking.txt obsolete? The latter in
Section 2 says ELKS only supports SLIP connections. I don't think
this is still true?
