I'll have to see if I can figure out why, but the kernel modules do not seem to work while the pcmcia-cs modules do. I'm going to try renaming /lib/modules/2.4.8 and then remove pcmcia-cs and then install pcmcia-cs to the 2.4.18 kernel, rename 2.4.8 back to normal and see if it kept all the modules for both kernel revs. I don't know what else to do.
