   Linux:
     The "ethernet card description" is the name of an Ethernet interface.
     There are two approaches to networking with Basilisk II:
-      1. Direct access to an Ethernet card via the "sheep_net" driver.
-         In this case, the "ethernet card description" must be the name
-         of a real Ethernet card, e.g. "eth0". It also requires the "sheep_net"
-         driver to be installed and accessible. This approach will allow you
-         to run all networking protocols under MacOS (TCP/IP, AppleTalk, IPX
-         etc.) but there is no connection between Linux networking and MacOS
-         networking. MacOS will only be able to talk to other machines on
-         the Ethernet, but not to other networks that your Linux box routes
-         (e.g. a second Ethernet or a PPP connection to the Internet).
+
+      1. Direct access to an Ethernet card via the "sheep_net" kernel module.
+         The "ethernet card description" must be the name of a real Ethernet
+         card, e.g. "eth0".
+
+         The sheep_net module is included in the Basilisk II source
+         distribution in the directory "src/Unix/Linux/NetDriver". You have
+         to compile and install the module yourself:
+
+           $ su
+           [enter root password]
+           # make
+           # make dev
+           [this will create a /dev/sheep_net device node; you should give
+            appropriate access rights to the user(s) running Basilisk II]
+           # insmod sheep_net.o
+
+         If you copy the sheep_net.o module to a place where it can be found
+         by the kernel module loader ("/lib/modules/<version>/kernel/drivers/net"
+         for 2.4 kernels) and add the line
+
+           alias char-major-10-198 sheep_net
+
+         to "/etc/modules.conf", the kernel should be able to load the module
+         automatically when Basilisk II is started.
+
+         The sheep_net module will allow you to run all networking protocols
+         under MacOS (TCP/IP, AppleTalk, IPX etc.) but there is no connection
+         between Linux networking and MacOS networking. MacOS will only be

+         connection to the Internet).
+
       2. Putting Basilisk II on a virtual Ethernet via the "ethertap" device.
          In this case, the "ethernet card description" must be the name
          of an ethertap interface, e.g. "tap0". It also requires that you
-         configure your kernel to enable routing and the ethertap device:
+         configure your kernel to enable routing and ethertap support:

-         default gateway to the IP address of the ethertap interface. This
-         approach will let you access all networks that your Linux box has
-         access to (especially, if your Linux box has a dial-up Internet
-         connection and is configured for IP masquerading, you can access
-         the Internet from MacOS). The drawback is that you can only use
-         network protocols that Linux can route, so you have to install and
-         configure netatalk if you want to use AppleTalk.
+         "Ethertap network tap". You also have to modify drivers/net/ethertap.c
+         a bit before compiling the new kernel:

+            #include lines)
+          - comment out the line "dev->flags|=IFF_NOARP;" in ethertap_probe()
+
+         Next, see /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/ethertap.txt for
+         information on how to set up /dev/tap* device nodes and activate the
+         ethertap interface. Under MacOS, select an IP address that is on the
+         virtual network and set the default gateway to the IP address of the
+         ethertap interface. This approach will let you access all networks
+         that your Linux box has access to (especially, if your Linux box has
+         a dial-up Internet connection and is configured for IP masquerading,
+         you can access the Internet from MacOS). The drawback is that you
+         can only use network protocols that Linux can route, so you have to
+         install and configure netatalk if you want to use AppleTalk. Here is
+         an example /etc/atalk/atalkd.conf for a LAN:
+
+           eth0 -seed -phase 2 -net 1 -addr 1.47 -zone "Ethernet"
+           tap0 -seed -phase 2 -net 2 -addr 2.47 -zone "Basilisknet"
+
+         (the "47" is an arbitrary node number). This will set up a zone
+         "Ethernet" (net 1) for the Ethernet and a zone "Basilisknet" (net 2)
+         for the internal network connection of the ethertap interface.
+         MacOS should automatically recognize the nets and zones upon startup.
+         If you are in an existing AppleTalk network, you should contact
