bootAble and GenMac

I'm making bootable CD with network on some computers, and it's been 
working fine. But then I make the same sort of CD on a computer that 
has a network card supported by GenMac.

Now bootAble (5.0) makes a bootable CD, but the network does not 
function. Has anyone made these two work together?

Last time I looked Bootable did not have support for genmac and V5 does 
not mention adding it.

I think someone, Doug ?, was trying to make this work.

If anyone needs a tester for this, I have a suitable system for 
testing.

I have been meaning to work on that, but other things have been 
keeping me occupied. I don't think it should be too difficult, all it 
really needs is HelperW.exe, the CONFIG.SYS entry for that, and the 
directory structure for the win driver, supplied by GENMAC. The OS/2 
parts should be handled by the bootAble support for networking 
(although I am not to sure about the GENMAC specific parts in 
PROTOCOL.INI etc.).

BootAble is 100% REXX, and there should be enough sample config files,
to help someone to figure out how to do the basics. Just remember, 
that it does an INTERPRET on each line that you write in a config 
file.
