Great work Pat! And it works too, most of the time anyway.- Added pcmcia-cs package (specifically cardmgr and some of /etc/pcmcia), and added its invocation to /etc/master. This tool is requied to bind drivers to PCMCIA (PC Card) devices. So we now support PCMCIA network cards, I think.
My Dell Inspiron with 3com 589ET 10baseT pcmcia adapter behaves a little strange. It seems a little random whether I get a DHCP lease or not. I've tried it quite a few times now and it consistently fails about 1 time out of 4.
When it works i get
*** Trying DHCP on eth0... info, udhcpc (v0.9.9-pre) started debug, Sending discover... eth0: flipped to 10baseT debug, Sending discover... eth0: flipped to 10baseT debug, Sending select for IP... info, Lease of IP obtained
or, if I'm lucky just
*** Trying DHCP on eth0... info, udhcpc (v0.9.9-pre) started debug, Sending discover... eth0: flipped to 10baseT debug, Sending select for IP... info, Lease of IP obtained.
When it doesn't work I get
*** Trying DHCP on eth0... info, udhcpc (v0.9.9-pre) started debug, Sending discover... debug, Sending discover... debug, Sending discover... eth0: flipped to 10baseT info, No lease, failing.
But in this case, running /etc/master again by hand fixes it. Could be the bloody old dhcpd on my Redhat 7.2 server but I never had any problems with it.
I noticed this error message in the card manager stuff. This always happens though, whether I can later get a lease or not. Maybe it's related??
cardmgr[73]: executing: './network start eth0 2>&1' cardmgr[73]: + sh: line 1: ./network: Permission denied cardmgr[73]: start cmd exited with status 126 cardmgr[73]: exiting
