You might find that it might work out easier to do a completely base
install via floppy (my sympathies, I know how slow those floppy drives are
(and how flat they can get via the airlines ;) ) and then fiddle with
stripped down pccard.conf config files and the settings from the PAO
project.

Try moving the audio up to irq 9 and using irq 5.  This lets a 3c589d and
various wireless cards co-exist.  Using 10 and 11 in pccard.conf doesn't
work too well ;)

Pity replacement floppy drives cost so much from HP.
