Jero: I've just run "setup" and pcmcia service appears like this: [*]pcmcia
when my system boots, when it comes up to finding module dependencies, it
first passes through "starting network" and it says "delaying
inicialization"...."failed". Few seconds later ir appears: "starting pcmcia
[ok]".
In the other hand, at console, if i want to see if the system detected my
cards I run "cardctl ident" or "cardctl config", and the answer of both is:
"no pcmcia driver in /proc/devices"
DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA?
