No need to mount/umount a PCMCIA wireless network card. When I remove my running RT2500 card in Etch, dmesg shows

   pccard: card ejected from slot 0
   ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:02:00.0 disabled

When I reinsert it:

   pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0
ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:02:00.0[A] -> Link [LNKA] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11
   rt2500 1.1.0 CVS 2005/07/10 http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com
   PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:02:00.0 to 64

and my wireless connection is restored automagically.
