I have Bering u-Clibc 2.1 installed: I am here in the manual:
-------------------------------------------
In order to have a working pcmcia package, you need to download in /lib/modules/pcmcia those modules which are necessary for your own PCMCIA card:
Starting with Bering v1.0-rc2, pcmcia modules come from the pcmcia-cs package and NOT from the kernel. Non kernel mode PCMCIA support through pcmcia-cs appears more stable.
The PCMCIA drivers are here
Two "core" modules are mandatory: pcmcia_core.o and ds.o and are provided with the pcmcia.lrp package. You will then need a socket driver (tcic.o or i82365.o for example) and your network card drivers.
The interface provided by your pcmcia hardware (e.g. eth0 and ppp0) should NOT be put in the auto statement of the /etc/interface file. The /etc/pcmcia/network script will be launched by the cardmgr program which is launched by /etc/init.d/pcmcia script. The interface configuration will be then read from the interface file. See the Bering user's guide for practical examples
-------------------------------------------
I don't understand the last paragraph (the manuals all seem to say something different). Anyhow, I have placed modules 3C589_cs.o and pcnet_cs_o within /lib/modules/pcmcia.
lsmod does indicates every necessary module except pcnet_cs.o is missing from the list.
Anyhow, I'm going to post some log files here, can someone provide me with what might be wrong here:

This is all the information I can think to extract at this time. I am new at this, once I determine the problem I will post further comments regarding the documentation (as of yet I am uncertain except for some inconsistencies between versions: especially the mention of loading PCMCIA modules within the kernal in one part of the document and loading PCMCIA modules with the PCMCIA within another part of the document, this seems to contradict).
Anyhow, thank you and I hope someone can help.
