Greeting-
The silly web form kept rejecting this, so here is an email.
FreeBSD 5.3 fails to see the PCMCIA controller on the following
laptops:
Compaq LTE 5100
Compaq LTE 5200
Compaq Armada 1130
AMS Roadpro
Toshiba Libretto 100
Toshiba Libretto 50
Nec Versa 2000
Systems have ram from 24-64Mb and disk from 500M-20G. None of the systems
show PCMCIA controllers when booted from the install floppy set. One
system was installed by doing the install on another system and
moving the disk over. That resulted in a full minimal install
with no PCMCIA card being recognized by the default kernel.
Attempting to load the pcmcia modules resulted in a message that
they were already in the kernel. Starting pccardd resulted
in the following message:
fatal error: no PC-CARD slots
You can repeat this by doing a 5.3 install onto an older laptop
with only 16Bit PCMCIA card slots. You can also gain access to my
system by email request. I can make a slip or plip connection
to get it on the net for you.
