an extremely brief guide to setting a wireless pcmcia card in slothware 0.1-rc1. step 1: get prerequisits. -pcmcia-cs (http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/pcmcia-cs/) -any needed device drivers not already in the kernel step 2: build pcmcia support into your current kernel, along with any device drivers already included in the kernel. step 3: install pcmcia-cs. -extract the source to /usr/src -run "make config" -run "make all" -run "make install" -add "/etc/rc.d/rc.pcmcia start" to /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit if you wish for cardmgr to start when your system boots step 4: install any other device drivers. step 5: use the card. -start cardmgr (/etc/rc.d/rc.pcmcia start) -"ifconfig ethX up" -"dhcpcd ethX" if using dhcp DISCLAIMER: This is just a "quick and dirty" guide of how I got my Senao Prism2.5 based wireless card to work using the hermes driver that were included in the 2.4.26 kernel. It is not meant to be taken as a problem solving miracle. ;) S-P
