PCMCIA on PowerPC is problematic 
Panic on card insert on ppc g3, 3.1.11 / 2.2.x (Wim Lewis)
PCMCIA setup on PowerBooks is sketchy, because I can't test it and get
very little feedback from users.
Only a subset of PCMCIA drivers have had any testing on PowerPC
systems. The supported-cards list shows which drivers are reported to
work on PowerPC; I have not heard that the Wavelan driver works. It
may be ok, or it may have big-endian/little-endian issues that need to
be sorted out.
/etc/pcmcia/config.opts also needs to be configured specially. I
would try changing the default memory and IO port windows to something
like:
include memory 0x80000000-0x80ffffff
include port 0x100-0x1ff
(remove the 0xc0000-0xfffff memory window, and the other IO port
windows), and see if that works any better, at least for the modem
card.
