There's a workaround 

Forum: PCMCIA Memory Device Issues
Re: Sad: sram is only set up correctly when inserted after network (Lorenz Hahn)

The PCMCIA subsystem has trouble automatically determining what memory
resources to use, if the first inserted card is a simple memory card.

To work around the problem, add to /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia:

    CORE_OPTS="probe_mem=0"

and maybe edit /etc/pcmcia/config.opts to only include memory ranges
that you know are ok.  To determine this, you can boot with the
network card, and check the system log for the memory probe results.
