Ok so far this is what I've done for installing the card.
I made floppies (using the make floppies target in /usr/src/release) and
got floppies to build. I included the following in the pccard.conf file:
card "3Com" "3Com 3c575-TX Cardbus Fast Ethernet XL"
config 0x1 "xl" ? 0x1
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device
remove /sbin/ifconfig $device delete
I don't know if I need this, but I put it there anyway, and it went into
the mfsroot.flp image, I checked it after it was built.
When the machine boots the kern.flp disk, I do the visual userconfig as
usual, and then when it's done, the first thing sysinstall says is the
pccard stuff.. If I select yes to use pccards, it asks for a mem
address... I choose the default (because it's the correct one) and the
default for the next selection, and the card doesn't get
configured. However, if I select yes to configure pccards, but then cancel
the memory selection and irq selection, it beeps as if the card was
configured, but then the screen just stays a blank blue, and if I alt-f2,
the machine says signal 11 caught: this is bad... or something like
that. I managed to catch the dmesg, and it says the "cardbus kludge" is in
this kernel, so I'm stuck... did I put the wrong thing in pccard.conf?
