Why do you want hermesap? That sounds like the driver for a Wireless Access Point, which is not what you're trying to support. You need the pcmcia-source package. It will expand into /usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs. Now get kernel-source-<whatever>. If you want to keep most of the same configuration as the kernel you installed do (from /usr/src/linux) "cp /boot/config-2.4.18-bf2.4 .config". Now do "make xconfig". Disable pcmcia support. Enable "Wireless LAN support" but don't enable any devices. Now you're ready to compile a new kernel without pcmcia support, and the pcmcia support in /usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs. Here is a pointer to an article on making custom Debian kernels: http://newbiedoc.sourceforge.net/system/kernel-pkg.html with the details.
