Forum: PCMCIA Installation and Configuration Issues
Re: Question: Need help setting up pcmcia-cs-3.1.13 on Linux Mandrake (Andrew Brackenbury)
Date: 2000, Apr 25
From: David Hinds <dhinds@pcmcia.sourceforge.org>

The PCMCIA package (the *.tar.gz file) is only about 1 MB so it will
easily fit on a single floppy.  So I have no idea what you did to
split the files across three floppies.  If you tried to unpack the
package under Windows, you've probably messed it up sufficiently that
you should just start over.  The PCMCIA-HOWTO does have detailed
installation instructions.

However, backing up a step, you say that your linux setup "will not
recognize" your cards.  That sounds very fishy to me and sounds like
you've just not configured things properly, and there may be no need
to upgrade your drivers.  See the PCMCIA-HOWTO section on diagnosing
installation problems.  You need to check basic things like (1) is
PCMCIA turned on in /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia?  (2) are there PCMCIA
messages in your system log?  (3) do you hear beeps when you insert
cards?  etc.

Message Administration

This form allows you to delete, move, or copy one or more messages. You can move messages by copying and deleting the original. The action will be applied to the messages you select above and all replies to those selected messages.


If you want to copy or move messages, specify the HyperNews path of a destination forum or message that all messages will be copied or moved to. The destination must already exist, so maybe create it first.

Path of Destination (a Forum or Message): (e.g. "test")

Notify Subscribers at destination
NO


If you want to delete messages (the default), specify that here. If you want to move messages, you need to delete the original messages; placeholders will be left pointing to where they were moved.

Delete Messages
NO


Caution: After deleteing messages (the default), if you have not copied them (i.e. no destination above), then the selected messages are not be recoverable.
