Which part is giving that message? The kernel or pccardd? If it is
pccardd, then it is easy to solve, just add another entry in
/etc/pccard.conf. Here is what I have to use two Lucent cards:
# Lucent WaveLAN/IEEE
card "Lucent Technologies" "WaveLAN/IEEE"
config 0x1 "wi0" ?
config auto "wi1" ?
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
It seems that pccardd do some static allocation of everything in
pccard.conf on startup and can't handle more than one of the same
device without this kind of help.
