(according to fdisk, the disk has an ext2 file system already built on it.) i started with a 0.62 kernel. but the package 0.62/contrib/pcmcia.tgz does not work with the .62 kernel distribution, since programs like /sbin/insmod and a bunch of directories are missing. moreover, i have no convenient way to build insmod (and my caldera 2.2.14 /sbin/insmod dumps core when i execute it on trinux...) so then i went back to 0.51. with the pcmbase and pcmod* packages, it complains about module ide_cs not found. so i created an additional mod package, with ide_cs.o and ds.o. now when it loads the pcmcia modules it complains that it can't find symbols ide_register and ide_unregister, which appear to be in block/ide.o? which i can't find anywhere... (by the way, when i try instead to load an ethernet card, it looks for /sbin/ifconfig instead of /bin/ifconfig. but i can manually config the card up...) any suggestions? should i try trinuxAG for this purpose, or will i be equally frustrated...
