Looks like a PCMCIA bridge configuration issue. I had similar problem with the 
new Teletronics motherboards.

What kind of PCMCIA chipset do you use? In any case, in "/etc/init.d/pcmcia" 
there is a special kludge (line 116) which detects TI bridges used in 
Teletronics. Modify it so that it recognizes your PCMCIA chipset ID and check if 
it will help you.
