I'm installing stable onto an IBM 560X from a FD boot and then FTP.

Most of the install has been uneventful, but getting the PCMCIA to work
(and then networking so as to FTP install) has been problematic.

I'm using a Xircom CreditCard CEM56-100 (ether 10/100 + modem56) as my
pcmcia card.

During the install, in the "Configure PCMCIA Support" section, it asks
whether my pcmcia controller is i82365 or tcic:  I presume i82365.

It next asks for Controller Options, which I leave blank.  Same for Core
Options and Card Manager Options.  I suspect somewhere in here I need to
input an option or two, but I've search google hi and lo but haven't
found the magic answer yet.

If I complete the Configure PCMCIA section, I get 3 hi pitched beeps and
then a return to the regular install menu.

If I proceed to "Configure the Network" and input appropriate numbers,
etc, and then try to install the Base System, I eventually get the error
msg "The service was unavailable or contained no release file" when I
try to connect to a Debian server to complete an FTP install.

Would sure appreciate any pointers.  

Thanks
Kevin
