Using pccardd worked. There is an entry for the 3Com Megahertz 589E in
/etc/defaults/pccard.conf. As the 7500 has a built-in sound card, I tried
removing irq 5 from the irq pool. However doing that causes the boot to hang
after:

  ppi0: <Parallel I/O> on ppbus0

I get a similar hang during startup if I add

  pccard_enable="YES"
  ifconfig_ep="DHCP"

to /etc/rc.conf

What is the correct way to do this?
