Summary: Have base packages installed. Need to install pcmcia packages so that ethernet card can be used for the remaining packages. Can't get pcmcia packages to install.
Background: I'm trying to install Debian on a Compaq Aero 4/33. I can get the base installion just fine (version 1.2.9). I would like to install the rest of the packages over ethernet, but I need to get the pcmcia services working. I have an IBM cardit card ethernet adaptor. Problem: When I try to install the pcmcia-modules-2.0.27 package (the kernel that came with the base was 2.0.27), it says I don't have the kernel-image-2.0.27 package installed. Well, as I understand it, that package was supposed to be included with the base. But nevertheless I tried installing the kernel-image package manually. This allowed me to install the pcmcia-modules & pcmcia-cs packages, but when I reboot, it give me errors like bad symbol in table and messages saying the module doesn't match the kernel version. It scrolls by too fast for me to catch it all. Are these bootup messages logged somewhere? I am used to slackware and haven't found my way completely around debian yet.
