Can the kernel used to install the system in the 5.2 CD's access a 
PCMCIA CDROM drive?

I would like to put 5.2 on a Toshiba Portege tablet PC but the only 
CDROM it has is an external PCMCIA CDROM. Most Linux distributions (with 
the exception of Mandrake --- my least favorite one) can boot but then 
cannot find the CDROM because the proper drivers are not present in the 
version of the kernel used to install the system.
