PAO is where PCMCIA support in FreeBSD originated. It has been folded into FreeBSD 4.0 and above and is now obsolete (unless you are running an older version of FreeBSD). If you could provide a bit more information on what is going on (errors, configuration), it would help. Is the system configured for pccard support? You need: pccard_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf. I also strongly suggest pccardd_flags="-z". An ifconfig line (either pccard or specific to the interface) will also be required. R.
