when it is rebooted, the checking/loading of portmapper is done
before the pcmcia driver is loaded and consequently instead of being
able to mount the remote directories via fstab, I have to log in as
root run "mount -av", log out, then log in as a user. This cannot be
an unusual problem. What is the "correct" way to address this so it
loads like a desktop. Don't assume to much in depth knowledge on my
part. send me off to read if thats the answer!
Use the command 'cardctl' to tell the laptop which network it is on.
You can include it in the init scripts after the pcmcia driver is
loaded.
In /etc/pcmcia/network.opts, there is a config option to tell it which
partitions to mount for a particular network.
