The current focus is on merging the base network stack infrastructure to head, and deal with those remaining subsystems later. > about a year ago, vimage refused to work with PCCARD NICs, > not to mention building a static kernel by: > hints "GENERIC.hints" > > How's your mileage?

IMUNES should work with both latest vimage and vimage_7 kernels from the imunes.net/virtnet page, though in general IMUNES mailing list would be a more appropriate place to discuss any IMUNES specific issues.
