Comments/Problems:
My Xircom Cardbus 56k Modem/10-100 Ethernet card combo [rbem56g-100] to
autodetect using its module -- xirc2ps_cs. After the reboot, I had to
jet
out to a normal console, modprobe the yenta_socket module to get the NEC
Versa LX's Ricoh rl5c478 cardbus hardware to detect & configure, and
then I could
modprobe the Xircom module. After that DHCP worked fine and the rest of
the install went without a hitch; I'd have been lost if I didn't know
anything about linux though. Maybe something can be done about
detecting the Versa LX's cardbus hardware automatically?
Overally, seems to be a linux hardware support issue and not a Debian
installer issue. The installer is great and seems to work very well. I
was very pleased.
Peace,
Fred

Since pcmcia-cs is now an empty transitional package, I am closing all of its
old bugs. If you think your bug report is still valid, you should probably
report it against pcmciautils or linux-2.6 instead. Thanks.
