Thanks for your reply. cdctl tells me that there's an unsupported card in the socket, but I know it is supported because it's listed in supported.cards and in pcmcia/config. My problem is I don't know the correct way to edit the config file. If someone could give me the syntax and where to put it I would be most appreciative. I've read the documentation, and it's very vague on the CD-ROM's--or maybe I just don't know what I'm looking for.
