I didn't see it got dropped, that is very unfortunate but also understandable. It's been a few years since I last messed around with it. If I recall, what was in the kernel at the time had a few issues and hadn't been touched in a very long time. It was a huge hassle to get working, there wasn't much up to date documentation.

I made back images and kept a lot of the documentation in case I needed to go back since it was tricky to find the first time.

However once you do get it working it's very satisfying to see a connection through a VHF radio appear in the native linux networking stack. Opens doors to a lot of goofy and fun ideas.
