Hi,

The only way I can get my PCMCIA network card to work on Fedora C2 is:
1. Ensure that the PCMCIA service starts at boot.
2. Log in as root.
3. Activate the Network Card, manually.

This also means:

a. That if the Network service starts at boot - the Network Card does
not activate - even with root login.

b. That I do not get an automatic network connection when the system
boots - only manual activation with root login - works.

c. That if the system reboots after a power outage, there is no
network connection - until I login as root.

So the question is -
How can I get my PCMCIA network card to work at boot time?

Thanks.
