I tried the other two choices (ignore 10/11 and : ignore 11) and none of them worked. In the end I booted : DOS and ftp'd the files. I installed from the DOS : partition just fine, and then edited pccard.conf.sample : to exclude irq5. The /etc/defaults/rc.conf started : pccardd with -i 5 and -i 10, but it still wanted to : attach the card at irq5. I set it up in /etc/rc.conf to : start with no flags and use the newly-modified : pccard.conf file and it works great. Any ideas on why : this could have been? No. I've not had the bandwidth to deal with the sysinstall issue wrt installing via a pccard. All I can say is that it sounds strange.
