Let's see whether I understand you correctly. You have installed the following packages: kernel-source-2.0.30 kernel-package pcmcia-source There is an easy way to get a working kernel and PCMCIA combo. Do the following as root: 1) cd /usr/src/linux 2) make-kpkg clean 3) make config [ or make menuconfig or make xconfig -- whichever you prefer ] 4) Configure your kernel. 5) make-kpkg --revision custom.1.0 kernel_image [ You may substitute another name for custom.1.0 if you like. ] 6) make-kpkg --revision custom.1.0 modules_image [ This will build a pcmcia-modules-2.0.30 package. Do NOT use make modules_image or make modules. ] 7) Install the two .deb files (for the kernel-image-2.0.30 and pcmcia-modules-2.0.30 packages) that have been created in the /usr/src directory. You may now remove the kernel-source-2.0.30, pcmcia-source, and kernel-package packages if you wish. Note that you can use the standard Debian pcmcia-cs package. It does not need to be recompiled.
