Re: Kernel 2.4.18-686 and PCMCIA woes



This worked for me whith somewhat the same problem:
	Get the kernel source, do a make oldconfig and then a make menuconfig
for anything else you need to change, and then just make modules and
make modules_install without actually compiling the kernel.

Hope that works.
