Re: Debian Install CD doesn't recognize my hard drive - SUCCESS (sort of)

Thanks Derek. Continuing with aptitude this morning, and installing 
probably way too many packages (took a long time), yielded a running 
system, with PCMCIA support, ethernet working, etc. Whew! :-)

I found that I needed to change my /etc/default/pcmcia settings from 
"PCIC=yenta_socket" to "PCIC=i82365". This is odd, because in my 
previous settings, before a drive failure, it was yenta_socket, and when 
it sets up my connection it now automagically changes it from i82365 to 
yenta_socket!  Nevertheless, it works...

I also found that the sarge installer set /etc/network/interfaces to 
"iface eth0 auto", and you don't want "auto" for a PCMCIA interface. 
"ifdown eth0;ifup eth0" fixes the problem in the short term.
