Kevin,

Good eye, there!  With the hyphen in the flag it works perfectly, 
setting up the cards before the network setup.  One thing I noticed 
in the boot messages -- after it adds the default route, I see some 
lines I didn't see before.  I'll reproduce the entire section:

Setup PC-CARD: memory beep
ep0: <3Com Etherlink III 3C589> at port 0x240-0x24f irq e slot 0 on pccard0
ep0: Etherenet address 00:60:97:47:3b:bb
anet default: gateway 192.168.1.254
Code 128 not found
Code 128 not found
Code Unknown ignored
Code 128 not found
Code 128 not found
Code Unknown ignored

Hah?  Vas ist mit der "Code" messages?

Thanks much for the "-z" tip.  Really appreciate the help.
