Comments/Problems:
The problem was that it couldn't configure the network. Going into a
shell showed that cardmgr would say "no sockets found!", like this:
Mar 26 17:22:18 rumba cardmgr[836]: starting, version is 3.1.33
Mar 26 17:22:19 rumba cardmgr[836]: no sockets found!
Mar 26 17:22:19 rumba cardmgr[836]: exiting
Originally, I thought it was the wrong kernel module. I tried many
things, most of which I've forgotten now. But then, I managed to
upgrade the whole system to unstable, and that did it. I /think/ it
was the upgrade of pcmcia-cs to 3.2.5-2.5, but of course I'm not sure
whether it was this package or perhaps another package.
I'm reluctant to wipe the installation to try again, with just the
newer pcmcia-cs. (This is my main machine that I need to work on
every day.) But if you make a new image with the more recent
pcmcia-cs included, then I can try to boot it to see if that fixes
the problem.
I hope I managed to describe this well enough. In the best luser
manner, I managed not to keep track of what I did. Maybe I can
convince myself to try another install, now that I know how to fix
it...

Okay, thank you for the feedback. I'll allow myself to close this one=20
then, based on the fact that you got it working when you afterwards=20
upgraded your installation to unstable. Also, I can confirm pcmcia=20
networking working on two different laptops using the current=20
installer.
