dont build pcmcia support into the kernel or kernel modules, instead get the source for pcmcia-cs from sourceforge.net, build the kernel and modules (again, without pcmcia support), boot the new kernel image, and extract and install the modules from the pcmcia-cs source code. Also, read the docs that come with the source code. This is not garanteed to work with your setup (card/pc-card bridge) but has always worked for me.
