What does the rest of dmesg say?  The above doesn't tell me too much.
Also, add "debuglevel 4" to your /etc/pccard.conf file.  This will
cause pccardd to be more verbose.  Also, booting verbose will give
more information.  Finally, IRQ 8 is JUST WRONG.  You can't use it.
The bridge chipset shouldn't support it.  But it looks like you have a
pci based one since irq 9 isn't in the above list.
