Thanks for the prompt reply.

The Laptop is a Twinhead Voyager.

dmesg reports a Cirrus PD6729 PCI-to-PCMCIA chip and the PCMCIA services load the following modules (listed from `cat /proc/modules`)

3c589_cs 1 0
serial_cs 2 1
ds 2 [serial_cs 3c589_cs] 2
i82365 5 2
pcmcia_core 9 [serial_cs 3c589_cs ds i82365] 8

Software versions
kernel = 2.0.37
PCMCIA Services = 3.0.12
3c589 driver = v0.99H

I have used a boot floppy version of Linux as a means to recover data on Win9x laptops at work that are un-bootable or too unstable for use (I will need to use this many times!!!) and I have not yet read all of the init and config scripts, but I can configure the PCMCIA start up options if I need to.

Thanks again for your help.
