Hi Brad, what I learned was that v2.2-STABLE does not have PCMCIA direct support, only a few enablers. What I ended up doing was to boot my TP-560 off of the v2.2.2-PAO boot floppy, go under the options editor and set the release name to 2.2-97MMDD-SNAP, go under the Media Type and set it to FTP via URL to the releng22.freebsd.org SNAP server. I then cvsup'ed the RELENG_2_2, made the world, and fixed up things in /etc. I also had to install the RELENG_2_2 /stand/sysinstal to replace the PAO sysinstall that was put onto the system. But this was all predicated on v2.2.2-PAO working with my LinkSys Combo. Mine shows the Idents of "E-CARD", "E-CARD", which PAO listed as untested and warns me about, but did work for me. Your mail said that PAO boot floppy didn't like your copy of the card, so that doesn't help you. You might want to build a fixed PAO boot floppy that grok's your card on your running system. BTW, I only tried to use it on IRQ 10 or IRQ 11 on PAO. Trying to use it on IRQ 15 on 2.2-STABLE, which should have been free, failed to work. Also, I added an ed0 at 0x300 to version of the PCCARD kernel as my LinkSys will only configure to 0x300 and 0x320. regards, K^2 (key@cs.utk.edu)
