Hello,

I've got an old notebook too (Toshiba 4000CDS) and my PCMCIA is a bit
strange too. During floppy installation, it's detected and mounted on
ne0, whereas normal execution, it's mounted as ne3. It's not hard to
fix the network configuration to handle this, but it make me think
that this driver is not very "clean"... I use a Sitecom PCMCIA 10/100
Ethernet adapter.

Best regards,

Bruno.
