I haven't looked at Debian's pcmcia startup script. But I think you could comment out any lines that update the inittab and restart it. Something like: # echo "S$NR:12345:respawn:$INITTAB $DEVICE" >> /etc/inittab # telinit q Or is there some variable (maybe $INITTAB) that is checked? If so, maybe comment out the lines that define it.
