Good job but I think there is a typo.

Wow, Tom is right but kernel recompile is the more painful way. I have
gone through this pain of upgrading for my i486DX2 gateway.
Debian stock kernel comes with almost all concievable modules including
PCMCIA. So all you have to do to get PCMCIA activated is to know exact
module names to put in

Hi
1. Why u afraid to reboot ya laptop? You shoud leave old kernel *always*
if somthing goes wrong u can always boot in old configuration,
at the moment I got 3-4 diff kernels on my system.
2. if u try install 3Com 3c589 is supported in kernel, u can install it
like a module, (my one 2.4.12-ac5)

Hi Doc.
I'll let you know what I did. YMMV.

'which cardctl' and 'which cardmgr'.

kernel-source-2.4.x directory to linux)

Thank you for your remarks.
