I'm installing stable onto an IBM 560X from a FD boot and then FTP.
Most of the install has been uneventful, but getting the PCMCIA to work
(and then networking so as to FTP install) has been problematic.
I'm using a Xircom CreditCard CEM56-100 (ether 10/100 + modem56) as my
pcmcia card.

Well, it is certainly possible to do the installati
Hi,
I happened to experience problems similar to yours while trying to install
a NE2000-compatible Ethernet PC Card, and I solved them by downloading the
source package for pcmcia-cs_3.0.0 and compiling it on the notebook.
(I used Win95 to download it to the notebook, and then copied it to the

Not sure about the modem pa
Now I am thoroughly confused. I installed "pcmcia-cs_2.9.6-2.deb," which I
found on my Debian 1.3.1 CD, and it complained that the actual modules were
missing. The only pcmcia module package I could find on the CD were
pcmcia-modules-2.0.29_2.9.5-2.deb and pcmcia-modules-2.0.30_2.9.5-3.deb; I

I am almost reluctant to reply further to this (probably unfortunately
not reluctant enough).
I don't personally know anyone that trys to install an operating
system without reading about how to do the task. I don't personally
care one way or the other what name was assigned to the disk.

And, like i stated, i do like debian a lot.
The points i failed to make were, that you can use pcmcia only *after*
you've installed (the base system), which requires at least seven floppies
and some hand work, and how much more i l

a go at it myself --- create a pcmcia install disk, how can i find
