David - I solved my problem. I've discovered the last piece of the puzzle to fix this for my wireless nic. the NetGear MA401 is NOT in the /etc/pcmcia/config-2.4 file.
I was comparing Knoppix files to sarge and noticed that knoppix had an entry for my card and sarge didn't: card "Netgear MA401RA Wireless Adapter" version "NETGEAR MA401RA Wireless PC", "Card" bind "orinoco_cs" This sounds like I should submit a bug report so we can add this, right? If so, what is it to be logged against? Note that I had to implement changes related to this post as well before getting to this point as well. Don't know if these steps are filed as well: http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2004/debian-boot-200401/msg00219.html There are other cards that aren't in the config-2.4 file in addition to mine - that may be a reason why PCMCIA installs aren't working so well... Hope this helps and let me know if there's some extra info that I can give.
