I have two pc card NICs in my system - ep0 and wi0.  All of the normal 
problems (irq, etc.) have been solved, and I am using them beautifully.

The problem is, I would like to use the pccard_ifconfig directive to 
configure BOTH of these cards from /etc/rc.conf.

Currently, I have _one_ pccard_ifconfig statement in rc.conf, and NO normal 
ifconfig statements:

pccard_ifconfig="DHCP"

and this causes my ep0 (in slot 0) to successfully grab a DHCP address and 
function on the network.  Since I do not specify in any way which card to 
use, I am assuming that it just uses whichever card is in slot 0.

So the logical thing to try (I thought) was this:

pccard_ifconfig_ep0="DHCP"
pccard_ifconfig_wi0="inet 10.10.10.10 netmask 255.255.255.0"

But this does not work.

How do I use the (very convenient) pccard_ifconfig mechanism in rc.conf to 
configure multiple pccard NICs ?

thanks,

LT
