But when I inserted the Orinoco card, the system hung completely. I
had to press the power button.
The Orinoco card works fine on a IBM Thinkpad A22m with LFS 5.1
(kernel 2.4.26).
I suspected from orinoco_cs module (I didn't build it in the kernel by
pcmcia-cs seems to like it as module). I upgrade to 2.6.13 kernel and
I could configure the card one time. I could bring it up and down two
o three times without problem and I could ping to the access point.
After that, I reboot the laptop and the hangs occurs again and again.

I answer myself in the hope this helps someone sometime.
Return to 2.6.8.1 kernel as LFS 6.0 book says.
Configure the kernel with
CONFIG_PCMCIA=y
# CONFIG_PCMCIA_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_YENTA=y
CONFIG_CARDBUS=y
# CONFIG_PD6729 is not set
# CONFIG_I82092 is not set
# CONFIG_I82365 is not set
# CONFIG_TCIC is not set
CONFIG_PCMCIA_PROBE=y
CONFIG_HERMES=y
CONFIG_PCMCIA_HERMES=m
In /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia:
PCIC=yenta_socket
And all works fine. Lines "CONFIG_PCMCIA_HERMES=m" ( for orinoco_cs
module) and "PCIC=yenta_socket" were crucial.
Un saludo.
