I added the startup = options into my rc.conf and on boot up it attempts to start pccardd, but = say's card is not configured.=20 oh, and I am using a ISA PMCIA socket adapter card into which the = WaveLAN card plugs into, not a Laptop. =20 I would appreciate any insight or documentation anyone may have on = setting up such a device.
