Hi i've just installed Gentoo on my laptop to replace a RedHat 7.3. |

| 3 |
everything went smooth but the PCMCIA initialization, well at boot time |
| 4 |
my pcmcia ethernet is not initialized and i have to unplug it and plug |
| 5 |
it again so that an hotplug event is generated and everything is |
| 6 |
initialized (net.eth0 is called and the interface created). |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
This was an annoying thing so i added the line: "cardctl insert" in the |
| 9 |
pcmcia script so that every time i boot the card is correctly |
| 10 |
initialized and the eth0 interface is created (and i can start samba :)) |
| 11 |

I don't know if there is something more elegant than this, but i suggest |
| 13 |
thinking about add this command to the pcmcia rc script so that the |
| 14 |
cards are enabled at boot time. |
