Help Installing 3COM PCMCIA


Hello all

I just installed a RH 9.0 Distro on a old laptop for me to mess around on.

I still have a few bugs to work out but...

How in the heck do u get PCMCIA stuff to work???


I have a 3COM EtherLink III LAN PC Card

3C589D-COMBO

But I can't get it to work...


Any insight on the problem??

Thanks

make sure pcmcia is installed in the kernel
make sure pcmcia services are running
make sure you have hotplug in the kernel then when you stick the card in the slot it should automagically detect it and configure it for you
