I remember having an issue like this with 8.0. The temporary solution was to disable pcmcia at boot (chkconfig --level 345 pcmcia off) and start it manually after logging in (service pcmcia start). Running it from a terminal, it would still "timeout" now and then... a CTRL-C would break it and start the service properly. I don't know what the cause of it was, but it doesn't happen with Red Hat 9. -- Jason Dixon, RHCE DixonGroup Consulting http://www.dixongroup.net -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
