I don't have my laptop handy, but I believe the "/etc/pcmcia" directory
gets created by the pcmcia-cs package, so this step should occur after
installing pcmcia-cs.

Not sure if you mean install pcmcia-cs completely from source, or copy the
source into /var/spool/sorcery and then cast it.

Glad you got it working! I'm curious as to why it stopped working. Did
you answer "Yes" to the question about needing PCMCIA support when
configuring the network during the installed? When you installed pcmcia-cs
(step 3 above), did you 'cast' it or just manually build and install?
