Re: PCMCIA Failure on Kernel Recompile
I should have clarified, I used the same kernel config file as I was
using successfully, save for adding SCSI support and a few USB options.
So the PCMCIA cardbus support is in and the relevent option for the 3com
card is also in.
Any other ideas?
Thanks for the help, though :)
