I had hangs with a 3Com ethernet PC-card when going single-user and
back. I solved this by putting a little powercard.sh script in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/. The script just powers down the PC-card on
shutduwn. Or puts the lights back on on powerup. No hangs since
then. Here's the script:
------------8<>8----------------
#!/bin/sh
case $1 in
start)
/usr/local/libexec/pccardq | \
awk -F '~' '$5 == "inactive" { printf("pccardc power %d 1", $1); }' \
| sh \
&& echo -n ' pccardPower'
;;
stop)
/usr/local/libexec/pccardq | \
awk -F '~' '$5 == "filled" && $4 ~ /ep/ \
{ printf("pccardc power %d 0", $1); }' \
| sh \
&& echo -n ' pccardPower'
;;
*)
echo "usage: `basename $0` {start|stop}" >&2
exit 64
;;
esac
------------8<>8----------------
I forget where I got the pccardq program. Somewhere in the /usr/src
tree. Maybe in a pccard[d|c] related directory.
HTH.
