Maybe an interrupt probe problem Re: Question: PCMCIA modules fail to load during bootup (anup ochani) Date: 1999, Dec 21 From: David Hinds <dhinds@pcmcia.sourceforge.org>

The PCMCIA-HOWTO has advice for debugging startup problems with the PCMCIA drivers. You can narrow down the problem by booting with no cards inserted... if you still get a lock-up, the most likely problem is an interrupt probe failure. The HOWTO says how to deal with this. -- Dave
