as reported earlier, this is not really a bug, and there isn't very much
we can do about it. This is only a "problem" on the main/udma66 floppies

kernels.

perhaps file a (wishlist) bug against pcmcia? actually this info is written by
dbootstrap and debconf should offer to remove pcmcia from your system if
you don't need pcmcia .
