Ethernet driver patch for A/UX 1.0

[Kevin Brooks]

There is a patch for the A/UX 1.0 ethernet driver.  This patch helps
eliminate the problem the driver has in resetting the card correctly
after an overflow condition on the receive buffer.  This patch greatly
reduces the chances of the card going into an off line state, which
would require manual intervention to get the card up again.

If you've been seeing alot of these:

        ae6_intr: receive overflow warning
        ae0: overflow NIC reset failed

then this is the patch for you.

I've shared the following together into an archive:

		ae6.uu     -  uuencoded enet driver
		ae6install -  install program for the new driver

Because I want to try to track what kind of need there is, or how many people
will benifit from having patches posted to this group I am asking that you
submit a request for this patch to me at the address below.

This fix was provided by John Pane.  Many thanks go to him for feeding
this fix back to Apple so that everyone can benefit from it.
