I was looking into I installed 4.1-20000901-STABLE on a dps electronics AMD K6 300, as well as a Compaq Contura 400c (486dx25..). the dps is having some pcmcia problems...it appears that pccardd doesnt notice when cards are inserted or removed. Works fine on the Contura. (at the same time, the previous user of the dps mentioned that he had trouble when inserting removing the cards under windows...so it is likely a hardware problem.) I could /not/ use the 9/1/2k /floppies images for install, though. (ftp) They refused to talk to the (intel etherexpress 10/100) pccmcia lan card. The 4.1-R images had no such problem.
