Just a thought here for you. If one of the system boot up scripts is
happening too early, you could edit the time it is executes fairly easily.
In /etc/rc.d/rc3.d and probably rc5.d (text mode and graphical mode
runlevels) you will find startup scripts that begin with S## and K## where
## represents a two digit number. The K scripts stop the processes and the
S scripts start them.. (theres more, but no need for it here) If you want
the network script to come up after the pcmcia is started, just change the
## portion of the S script for networks., or lower the pcmcia scripts
number. You'll need to write down the numbers currently assigned to them,
and give those changes a try. Be careful though, some things may not like
having that order messed with. You can change the filenames with the mv
command. ie mv S45pcmcia S09pcmcia or mv S10network S46network.
You could even try having to network scripts, one for those things that need
it run earlier, and one for those that need it later.
ie cp S10network S46network Hope this helps.
