Question: 1555CDS 3.0.14(Redhat 6.1) fails at bootup only

I have a new 1555CDS (PCI/Cardbus) and have the opposite problem described in the documentation: at bootup I get a low beep then high beep. Unlike my ISA/Cardbus 335CDS, I don't get a "clean" memory probe report in syslog, only "excluding ...". I have tried limiting ranges without success so far. I started with all the default 3.0.14 config files from Redhat. In any case, cards report as "Anonymous memory" and fail to config if inserted at boot time. If the same card is removed and reinserted any time after boot, it will be configured properly. If no card is inserted at boot, everything also works fine. I'm using only older cards (modem, ethernet), no Cardbus cards, and the Cardbus mode is turned off in the bios (nothing worked until I disabled it). Any suggestions will be appreciated. Paul

Note: Try the new package Re: Question: 1555CDS 3.0.14(Redhat 6.1) fails at bootup only (Paul Tibbitts) Date: 1999, Dec 06 From: Frederic FENOGLIETTO Pegase

Try with the new 3.1.5 package. Since the last 6 months, I try all the PCMCIA package (not because I like it but because I try to use my Cardbus Xircom card). For me, with the 3.0.14 package, PCMCIA crash if I put the PCMCIA bios value of my toshiba (T8000) in another value than automatic. With all the laters packages, I see great improvement of the Toshiba support. So, try the last package. With the readme, it's very easy to install.
