Description Phil Stopford 2005-08-29 00:06:08 UTC 
This causes a delay in boot of around 15-20 seconds if the card is not present
in the machine during boot-up. If you use hotplug instead, boot-up skips the
device if absent and will also nicely set up the hardware if it is present.

Behaviour is identical in SUSE 9.3 and 10.0 beta 2.

YaST does not know that the card is CardBus. It sees just PCI.

Steffen, didn't hwinfo report that as pcmcia or cardbus or whatever in formner
releases?
