To get a PCMCIA card to work, you need to remake the kernel, and the
PCMCIA modules, and then reinstall the kernel.

For this, you'll need the kernel source and the pcmcia source.

Ensure that networking and Ethernet are enables, but that all the
specific manufacturer options are turned off.

I use make-kpkg, so I run 
    make-kpkg clean
    make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image # custom.1.0 is kernel
name

now do the PCMCIA modules:
    make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 modules_image

finally, install the .deb files
    dpkg -i ../kernel-image-2.0.3x_custom.1.0_i386.deb \
            ../pcmcia-modules-2.0.3x_3.0.1-2+custom.1.0_i386.deb
