After a power-off cold-boot into a 2.4 kernel the PCMCIA modules from
David Hind's external PCMCIA package are not able to load. This
problem is present in the latest 2.4.2 and has been present through
the pre-2.4 series. The error given is:
Linux PCMCIA Card Services 3.1.24
kernel build: 2.4.2 unknown
options: [pci] [cardbus] [apm]
Intel PCIC probe: PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:04.0

PCI: The same IRQ used for device 01:00.0
Bad bridge mapping at 0x13ff0000!
not found.
ds: no socket drivers loaded!
To re-enable PCMCIA I have to power off, boot 2.2.17, load the PCMCIA
modules (version 3.1.21), and then reboot without a power off to
2.4.x. This setup will continue to work across reboots as long as the
machines is not turned off. As best I can tell, none of these steps
are superstitious, because if I leave one out then things do not
work. I am not as confident about the importance of the version
numbers, because I have not tried anything past 2.2.17 and 3.1.21 to
do the "reset". I have tried BIOS, Direct, and Any PCI access with
identical results.
The output from the loading of PCMCIA under 2.2.17 is:

If any additional information would be useful in tracking down this
problem please let me know. This might be apocryphal, but I don't
believe the problem occured until after the first time I used a
32-bit PC-CARD ethernet card. It is my recollection that I had no
problems during the first months I owned the machine when I only used
16-bit cards.
