[expert] PCMCIA nic shutdown troubles

[bassque]

Linux Mandrake 8.0 Final detected and installed my EtherJet Cardbus pcmcia NIC just fine. But the problem is when I go to restart or shutdown it hangs and the machine will not shutdown!! I think its the dhcp software causing this, here is the message it never gets past   dhcpcd[637]: terminating on signal 1   can anyone advise? thanks
