PCMCIA Network card up on boot...

[Bruce <bestb@sympatico.ca>]

I would like my wireless PCMCIA network card to be up and running on boot. 
From what I can gather from the hotplug docs, it should be started via 
"coldplugging", i.e, by the /etc/init.d/hotplug script which is run at boot 
time. 

To get the card to work after a reboot, I have to eject it and reinsert it 
after I have booted. When I do this, the hotplug scripts do their job and the 
network card is brought up. 

I notice that, by default, in runlevel 2, /etc/init.d/hotplug is run at S11, 
whereas /etc/init.d/pcmcia isn't run until S20. 

Shouldn't hotplug be run _after_ pcmcia when booting to get an already 
connected pcmcia device to work on boot?? If so, should I move pcmcia up, or 
hotplug down, in the boot order?? Am I missing something, or does this 
(default) configuration mean no coldplugging of PCMCIA devices in Woody?
