No, unfortunately the userconfig does not offer any way (that I could discover) to set the IRQ to be used by a pccard. Additionally, I couldn't even find the ep0 device mentioned (perhaps the boot kernel doesn't have this?). Anyway, immediately after probing for devices install puts up this dialog box asking if any pccard device will be used for installation. Answering yes causes it to put up two more dialog boxes. The first one is to select memory address range (I selected 0xd4000) and the second box it to control IRQ selsection. I say it this way because, apparently, you can't explicity select what IRQ will be selected, but rather you are presented with some options on which ones to be *excluded* from the selection. However, even when I select option 1 (which claims that IRQ's 5 and 11 will be excluded...I think), IRQ 5 is used for the 3CCFE574BT pccard. As you may have already guessed I did go ahead and kill my previous really slow install and restart the install process. BTW, from watching the tcpdump I have been running on my server, its apparent that ep0 must have a 2 second watchdog timer. This is because the ack from my laptop is happening every two seconds. :-( This is the only reason any packets are getting ack'd at all.
