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.

Regards,
DigbyT
