PCMCIA question
 

hi,

in the shutdown script of slackware (9.1) there is 5 seconds sleep (sleep 5) commening on cooling of pcmcia cards. check out. i can't understand why this is all needed. can i comment it out? to get a faster shutdown.

If you don't actually have pcmcia cards, then you should be able to comment it out of the script and that will take care of it. I believe it is included automatically if you use a kernel that has pcmcia support, but it might be in there by default on all systems (even the bare.i kernel).
