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.
