I admit, one has to delve into the depths of Sys V init files to find
out the missing parts of the puzzle and who does this volunteerly ;-) ?
Check your /etc/rc.d/pcmcia file. There, at the start, you will see the
line
. /etc/rc.config
meaning that whatever variables have been defined in /etc/rc.config,
they will also be valid for your pcmcia script. Then, edit
/etc/rc.config. Search for the string CORE_OPTS. In my /etc/rc.config,
for example, I find (I have copied the meaning of the variables directly
in this file, so that I know what they are for):
#
# CORE_OPTS: This specifies options for the pcmcia_core module, which
# implements the core PC Card driver services. See ``man
# pcmcia_core'' for more information.
#
CORE_OPTS=""
Here, I would put CORE_OPTS="probe_io=n", or CORE_OPTS="probe_io=0".
Again, rtfm as the comments say ;-)
If you don't have such a configuration of files and want fast results,
then just put the CORE_OPTS line at the start of your pcmcia script
file. Later, when it works, you will have the time to ponder on the
right place to put it in (this is the philosophy side ;-)).
