It is simplest not to use /etc/init.d/network with a PCMCIA
network card. I suggest that you put your network details in
/etc/pcmcia/network.opts and that you trim them from
/etc/init.d/network. Then your network will not start until you
insert your network card.
You might want to leave the loopback in /etc/init.d/network -
like this:
ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
route add -net 127.0.0.0
For details on how to setup /etc/pcmcia/network.opts, see the
PCMCIA faq. If you use your system on multiple networks, you can
specify different schemes which make switching among them very
simple.
