Hi All-
I realize this probably picking a nit, but I was unable to get
/etc/pccard_ether (in -stable) to work with the pccard_ifconfig
option. I have put together a quickie patch that is pretty
much a direct hack (stolen entirely from the PAO pccard_ether
for 2.2.6-RELEASE by HOSOKAWA, Tatsumi <hosokawa@jp.FreeBSD.org>).
This fixes the handling of properly inserting the ifconfig_$interface
into the script. Otherwise it falls flat on it's face.
I hope this patch (unified diff) helps some folks:
