Same here - I see bits hinting that there are memory resource issues
on the one Linksys brcm47xx with PCMCIA (WRT54G3G).  Check out
trunk/target/linux/brcm-2.4/patches/009-wrt54g3g_pcmcia.patch.
There's no equivalent patch for 2.6, and commit #8475 actually added a
LINUX_2_4 as a dependency for pcmcia-cs.

This bites, I have a huge preference for 2.6 (mostly because I know it
better), but there doesn't seem to be any impetus - no one else is
buying a $200+ unit to put openwrt on.
