You need to load the isa-pnp module.  

The /etc/init.d/pcmcia script is confused, and it's doing an
"insmod" on i82365 instead of a modprobe (which would have
loaded the isa-pnp stuff).  I posted the details on why that
happens and what to do about it a couple weeks ago.  Look for
the thread "more PCMCIA woes".

It's possible that yenta_socket won't work.  It didn't work for
me with 2.4.18 and a Ricoh ISA/PCMCIA bridge: I had to use
i82365.

Didn't work for me...
