 Greetings again. I want to use a laptop as a router under 4.10. I
 have two PCcards that it recognizes, but when starting up, after
 connecting to the first card, I get the message:
>>> pccard0: Can no attach more than one child.
 So, is this a limitation in the kernel that I can fix with a
 re-build? Something in one of the config files that I haven't figured
 out? Something that is fixed in 5.3? Or... ?

This isn't a general problem. It must be related to your hardware, but you don't say what it is.

Sorry; didn't realize it might be relevant. Dell Inspiron 3500. FreeBSD is definitely seeing both cards; it responds nicely when I eject either of the cards. It just won't do anything useful when I insert the second card. More clues appreciated!

More information appreciated. People shouldn't have to ask you twice to know what cards you're using, or what the messages were. You might like to take a look at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html.

Doh! I saw "hardware" and I thought "computer". You are right, of course.

The actual message seen in dmsg when putting in the second card is as above:
pccard0: Can no attach more than one child.
I can't get a file off the system yet, unfortunately, so I can't give the full dmesg output.
