How to use pcmcia on a Thoshiba Tecra 550

[Andreas Fromm <Andreas.W.Fromm@physik.stud.uni-erlangen.de>]

Hi,

I'm trying to install Debian on my "new" Toshiba Tecra 550 CDT, but
can't get the PCMCIA controler to run. During the installation I'm asked
which type of controler I have (PCIC or i82???) but none of them can be
installed. Windows reported a toPIC97 controler, and somewhere I read
something old that this controler isn't supported be Linux, but I can't
imagine that nobody is using PCMCIA-Cards on Toshiba laptops under
Linux, right? 

Can anybody help me?
