I am unsure, given that this processor is PC104+ and the PCMCIA card is PC104+, how I would tell linux to look to the AT but (the PC104 bit) and not the PCI bus to find the PCMCIA card. Also I need the extra bus bandwidth in the PCI bus. So I really need to sort out the PCI problems unfortunately. David
