Hi Jerry, So your /proc/bus/pccard is also missing the two digit files aka: % ls -l /proc/bus/pccard total 0 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jun 2 13:13 00 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jun 2 13:13 01 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jun 2 13:13 02 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jun 2 13:13 03 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jun 2 13:13 drivers
I decided to try and bracket the problem by making and booting an install CD on another system so that I could copy the /proc/config.gz file, which I needed in order to try the genkernel approach... The genkernel is now building (under my host 2.4 kernel) so it will be a couple of hours before I can try your suggestions. Anyway, thanks for your offer of assistance. I'll see how the autoconfig goes when genkernel finishes, and then if it looks good (proving that 2.6 gentoo hasn't lost compatibility with any of the hardware I am using) I'll have another go at working out exactly which drivers I need for a manual config. I think it is probably a worthwhile exercise to get the manual config going, as it should give me a much better understanding of what drivers my hardware is using, and give me a faster boot and smaller kernel footprint.
