IIRC the reason your getting the Delaying eth0 is the fact that they
system has not brought up the PCMCIA device. Although on my old laptop the
PCMCIA service did this later, why yours is not doing it Im not sure. You
could always add the network restart line to the bottom of
/etc/rc.d/rc.local that way it tries again as the last thing on boot at
which point PCMCIA should already be up.
