Woody refuses to install pcmcia.

I ran "cardctl ident" while in Progeny prior to the upgrade and reboot.
Following the upgrade and reboot I get "no pcmcia driver in /proc/devices"

As I mentioned in my reply to Hubert, I'd sure appreciate a specific list of
what I should download and save somewhere prior to running a new upgrade
from a new re-install of Progeny.

I need to be certain that I have everything I need to restore pcmcia after
Woody destroys it.  I'd also like to be able to do a kernel upgrade and
to be certain Woody, the kernel upgrade, and pcmcia version all play
together nicely!

Thanks!  Doc
