This I can help you with.  Basically the pcmcia stuff is broke. To
get around this I had to install kernel-image_2.0.30 and get the
pcmcia-cs_2.9.6 and pcmcia-modules_2.9.6 from unstable.

All of these package are less than a floppy in size, if that helps... :/

PS I'd also be curious to know what display chipset you have. Cyber9320?
