I had problems with my Toshiba 7200 doing this untill I changed the pc card controller mode settings in the bios from auto-select to PCIC compatable.
-----Original Message----- From: Ashley Reynolds [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 30 May 2002 12:44 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [expert] PCMCIA Issues Hi all, I'm in the process of installing and configuring Mandrake 8.2 on my newly acquired laptop - a Toshiba Satellite 2100CDS. I overcame an issue with "Detecting PCMCIA Devices.." in the installer, where it would freeze the machine up, by booting from a PCMCIA boot disk. I have now run into another problem. When booting Mandrake, the system freezes when it comes to "Starting pcmcia:". This occurs when there is a PCMCIA card in there, when there is not, when it is in Slot 0, when it is in Slot 1. I have determined that the PCMCIA ports are in working order by installing Windows 98 and testing them out. Can anyone offer any help on this matter?
