Could you please also provide the output of lspci -n so we can see if
your PCMCIA problem is because of wrong pci ids in discover-data.

The problem with this is, that even though you don't need a network to
complete the first stage of the d-i install, you need a network setup to
complete your install to a usable system. Only the base packages (those
required to get a minimal booting system) are included on the CD. All
other packages you need for a really usefull system have to be
downloaded from a debian mirror. 
Ideal the network configuration would be in base-config, but we don't
have a network configuration there yet, so it's the second best option
to configure it in d-i.

You mean to select another level than you used for the first stage? You
can set the level for d-i with the expert boot option.

I guess this is a problem with the discover hardware data listing the
wrong module for your CardBus bridge. The "lspci -n" output will help to
confirm this.
