Hmmmm? I've never needed to do this. The default PCMCIA installation
always used ifup/ifdown before trying anything else. I just installed
Woody last night on a laptop, so I'm sure I did not have to do this.
Sorry, can't help with the eth0:0 line, but you should not 'auto' a
PCMCIA card line in the interfaces file. If you do, it will not come
up when you boot with the card in.
