Subject: [Cooker] Bug report : PCMCIA detection on Compaq Armada notebooks
I just installed Air on some Compaq Armada Notebooks and I have freezes when
trying to detect PCMCIA devices (either in the beginning of the install and
at late network config).
I triggered that on an Armada 1750 (PII 300, 128MB RAM, 4GB Disks) and on an
Armada 1574D (P233MMX).
The PCMCIA chip is a TI 1225 on the 1750, I think it the same on the 1574D.
Please have a look at dmesg.log attached.
Cdt,
Jérôme
