Many thanks to Greg Lewis and Josef Grosch for the tips to get me this
far with my 3Com PCMCIA troubles!

I've finally got the system installed - applied the PAO patches and now
have a somewhat working system.  The system is an HP Omnibook 5500CT,
48MB RAM, 3Com 3C589C PCMCIA NIC.  I'm running 3.2-RELEASE with the
latest PAO3 patches applied to both kernel and userland programs.  At
this point, I'm not using DHCP, I've got the card configured via
pccard_ether to come up as 192.168.0.2.  The 3Com card is being assigned
IRQ 10 IO 300 by pccardd.

One remaining problem is that the network card is *slow*.  Any thoughts
/ suggestions would be appreciated.  Following is the result of pinging
a locally connected machine. (Ouch!!)
