I am trying it on an Akita.
It works till now (ca 30 minutes), but I cannot use my wifi card.
It is a SparkLAN CF WiFi card. These are the data written on it:
- IEEE 802.11b Compliant
- DSSS at 2.4 GHz ISM Band
Model: WL-672
FCC ID: MXF-F910131

It worked on the old 2.6.18 (?) kernel with the orinoco_cs module. It
stopped working on 2.6.23, but I didn't need it so I have not tested it
thoroughly.

When inserting it I get in /var/log/messages:

Mar  8 09:47:34 akita user.notice kernel: pccard: PCMCIA card inserted
into slot 0
Mar  8 09:47:34 akita user.notice kernel: pcmcia: registering new device
pcmcia0.0


I tried manually modprobe-ing all the /lib/kernel/.../wireless/*
modules, but to no avail.

Next I will try altboot-ing from my SD card.

Thanks.
Bye.
