Not sure, but sounds like an interrupt probe problem

I think you should check the PCMCIA-HOWTO chapter on resolving
installation problems.  If loading the i82365 module freezes your
system, then you've got a problem with the interrupt probe.  There are
instructions in the HOWTO for disabling or restricting the probe.

Thank you for your quick relpy.

Yes. I did. I followed the How-To and tried whole the irq (0 - 15) one by one, but in vain.

May you let me know why I cannot see pcmcia_core.o with "lsmod" while I manually insmod this module. Also,
why did i82365 give me those messages while I manually
installed it by "insmod -pvm i82365.o"?

Thank you.

I can't really tell what you're doing

I can't really reconstruct what you did from your messages.  Part of
it is a language issue: it might be better for you to be more exact
about what sequences of commands you used and exactly what output you
got.  Also please watch your system log while doing these things:
almost all interesting PCMCIA messages are recorded in the system log.
I don't know what it means to say you "tried whole the irq (0-15)".
What did you do, exactly?  (what files did you modify, and how?)

If you do "insmod pcmcia_core", and that gives no error message, and
your system log indicates that the module was loaded, then I don't
konw why it would not show up with "lsmod".

If you try to "insmod -pvm i82365" when pcmcia_core is not loaded,
then you will get the "unresolved symbol" errors you describe.  You
should get the same messages if you do "insmod i82365" in this same
situation, however.

Show me what output you get from running the following series of
commands:

    insmod pcmcia_core
    tail /var/log/messages
    lsmod
    insmod i82365 do_scan=0
    tail /var/log/messages
    lsmod
