SU-Mac/IP comes with an application called Custom.  Custom creates a
file called netdev.sys, which must be in the same folder as SU-Mac/IP
or in the system folder.

You use Custom to tell Mac/IP what type of connection to use: Kbox
with KIP, Kbox with Kinetics code, or Ethernet.  If you select
Ethernet, Mac/IP will use the Ethertalk board *even if* you've got the
control panel set to built-in.  

If you don't have a netdev.sys file (e.g. you don't run Custom) then
Mac/IP assumes you're using a kbox with KIP.  So if you have a mac
connected to Localtalk, you don't have to run custom to get Mac/IP
working -- Custom is useful if you want to set a static IP address or
have Mac/IP use an Ethertalk board.

Questions about SU-Mac/IP can be directed to macip@jessica.stanford.edu.
