If I remember, if the pcmcia package is loaded, the
pcmcia card reader should be recognized automatically.
I don't remember changing anything. The card uses the
ide_cs driver and the listed database should be in
/usr/share/doc/pcmcia-cs/SUPPORTED.CARDS.gz

After you plug in the card with smartmedia chip do a dmesg
to see what device the card was recognized. Mine shows up
as hde1. Then just mount it: mount -t vfat /dev/hde1 /mnt

That's all you need.
