If you do have purely pci slot, and it is panicing on boot, you may have an irq conflict. I believe pccardd defaults to use irq 3, unless otherwise specified. Try updating the pccardd_flags line /boot/loader.conf to use the -i switch to allocate the appropriate irq: pccardd_flage=" -i 10" irq 10 happens to be my setting on an old Presario 1692. does the kernel panic when you try and boot the generic kernel with the ma401 in? If not, you may have in recompiled the kernel without the appropriate device drivers for card, pcic and wi.
