So what you are saying is that there _is not_ any way to perform multiple
pccard_ifconfig statements solely in /etc/rc.conf ?
I feel that defining it in /etc/rc.conf is more elegant, and am surprised
that it was built to work with one card but will not work with another one.
btw, as I successfully use pccard_ifconfig for ep0, I note that I do not
have a line in pccard.conf for ep0 (or for wi0) - both of these cards work
fine out of rc.conf without entries in pccard.conf - just _not at the same
time_, as you know.
thanks for the example -
