dont build pcmcia support into the kernel
or kernel modules, instead get the source
for pcmcia-cs from sourceforge.net, build
the kernel and modules (again, without
pcmcia support), boot the new kernel image,
and extract and install the modules from the
pcmcia-cs source code. Also, read the docs
that come with the source code. This is not
garanteed to work with your setup
(card/pc-card bridge) but has always worked
for me.
