I don't know what Debian's kernels do... Well we obviously need a bug report for this. Mainly what I found on google for this error message were suggestions to make sure that ISA support was in the kernel, which it is for the d-i boot kernel: CONFIG_ISA=y CONFIG_EISA=y CONFIG_ISAPNP=m In private mail, Jan Lübbe reported he also had the problem with 2.6.0-test9, and that he solved it by "building with isa-pnp not as a module". I've tried loading isa-pnp on my notebook before starting pcmcia, but it doesn't do anything. I did find a way to make it work for me. If I comment out either or both of these lines in /etc/pcmcia/config.opts, my orinoco card works: exclude irq 4 exclude irq 7 It seems it can only use irq 4 or 7, no others work for some reason. /proc/interrupts shows only these irqs in use: 0, 1, 2, 8, 14, 15. The cardbus controller is on 3. Why can't it use irqs 3, 5, 6, or 10-13, or share an IRQ? I don't know. Perhaps for d-i we should remove the exclude irq lines entirely from the config.opts. I really don't know. -- see shy jo
