I've just got a laptop from work and since I was using FreeBSD on my
desktop I'd also like to use it on my laptop.  The laptop itself is a
Compaq Armada 1598DMT and I am using a Kingston EtheRX IC PCCard model
KNE-PC2BT, Normally the KNE-PC2 driver should work fine with this card.
The laptop uses the Texas Instruments PCI-1131 CardBus Controller and is
on IRQ 11.

what I did is that I installed FreeBSD 3.3Release by downloading all the
sources with windows, then installed from that partition. I also
downloaded the PAO3-19991011.tar.gz file to be able to configure the
pccard.  I followed all the instructions in the readme and the
readme.install files, I recompiled my kernel accordingly and checked the
/etc/rc.conf to make sure all is right.

now when I boot I get the following message:

pccardd[55]: No card in database for "(null)"("(null)") [(null)]
[(null)]

Now i have checked my kernel config file and the appropriate flag has
been set as folows:
device	pcic0	at  isa? port 0x3e0 flags 0x1 irq 11

COuld someone give me hand with this ? as I would like to have my laptop
ready for monday if possible? or else I'd have to use linux instead or
even windows .

Thanks

Mike
