Interesting. What modules conflict with the PCMCIA? I just installed
using your 3.0.24 and the bf2.4 image on Thinkpad 560X using PCMCIA
for network install.
I might be getting "catastrophic" IDE performance but I'm not sure I
would recognize it -- the laptop is new to me.
I guess I should plan, for my personal computer, to build/use a 2.4.21
kernel which I have recompiled.
