I remember that from hamm and potato installations on my
Toshiba. I had to boot the installation disk, dig into
/target/etc/... and disable the PCMCIA, then reboot to finish
the installation and compile a custom kernel with the latest
PCMCIA patches. Took about a day each time, esp. since I didn't
take notes and keep archives.
After a HD upgrade, I installed Woody recently from the rescue
floppy images + FTP, and the whole PCMCIA bit came up
automagically. You might want to consider trying that.
