I did my NET install (where do I look, incidentally, to find out which version of Debian - as opposed to kernel - I am using?) using a 2.6 kernel, and both during and after the install my PCMCIA LAN card seemed to come up ok...
However when I tried booting on the 2.4.27-2-586tsc kernel that was also installed, the PCMCIA didn't start... This seems to be because the install process didn't install a necessary package, and there seem to be two PCMCIA related packages available: # apt-cache search 2.4.27-2-586tsc kernel-pcmcia-modules-2.4.27-2-586tsc - Mainstream PCMCIA modules 2.4.27 on Pentium-Classic pcmcia-modules-2.4.27-2-586tsc - PCMCIA Modules for Linux (kernel 2.4.27-2-586tsc) They seem to be mutually exclusive. The first results in the PCMCIA subsytem starting, and my card being recognised - but for some reason it is not up... The second doesn't seem to get that far. Anyone know what the difference is supposed to be, and what the procedure should be to get PCMCIA up and going in my 2.4 kernel? Thanks, DigbyT -- Digby R. S.
