I am running Mandrake 8.1 and am attempting to install a
Xircom combo Modem/Network Card: Xircom "RBEM56G-100BTX"
[According to http://www.xircom.com/cda/page/0,1298,0-0-1_20-476,00.html
this uses the Linux driver "XIRC2PS_CS" (see also
http://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net/ ]
With the computer (new Dell Inspiron 8100) turned off I inserted the
card, then rebooted the computer. The boot startup completely froze
at the stage "Checking for new hardware". Here is complete log of
everything from the screen:
---------
Checking for new hardware [ OK ]
To use Backward Compatibility with ipchains for kernel 2.4
Use: /sbin/modprobe ipchains
Starting pcmcia: [ OK ]
cardmgr[765]: watching 2 sockets
Setting network parameters: [ OK ]
Bringing up interface lo: cardmgr[765]: executing: 'modprobe
cb_enabler'
cardmgr[765]: executing: 'modprobe serial_cb'
---------
[this is where it froze]
Any hints what I do now?
