You got it - the pcmcia is finally booted allowing Eth0 to do it's thing. With
Linux, I've found it's best not to sweat the stuff that works fine, but gives
you anxious moments.
Peace:-)

One failures: eth0 .. I get:
Jun 4 13:12:12 cero ifup: Delaying eth0 initialization.
Jun 4 13:12:12 cero network: Bringing up interface eth0 failed
(cero is the name of me computer)
The strange part is that once everything is up and running, my interface
is working, and I am able to get to the outside word. No additional
tweaking on my part. I'm thinking it's because of it's order in the boot
sequence.

Other than that, Mandrake's running like a champ on me laptop .. thanx
for yall's help
Take a look at the /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit file, I believe that is the file
that controls the boot sequence.
I have the same on my laptop. I believe it's because the pcmcia
initialization occurs after the net initialization.
