Description Christian Boltz 2005-08-16 19:15:22 UTC 
When booting the 10.0 beta1 DVD on my Acer TravelMate laptop, I see the 
message "Activating PCMCIA devices... failed" on tty1 (directly before the 
"Loading installation system" message appears). 
 
My laptop has the possibility to insert a PCMCIA card, but I have none. 
 
I don't know if this is a bug or just because I have no PCMCIA card inserted - 
however the "failed" worries me. 
 
I'll attach boot.msg.

Christian (Zoz), do the various changes from beta1 to beta2 regarding PCMCIA 
cover this?
Comment 3 Christian Zoz 2005-08-17 08:50:14 UTC 
We still had problems with installation via pcmcia in beta1 which should be
fixed now. So we could consider this as fixed.
Comment 4 Stefan Behlert 2005-08-17 10:25:31 UTC 
Still present with beta2, sorry folks. Is this a bug in the linuxrc or in 
hardware detection?
Comment 5 Steffen Winterfeldt 2005-08-17 10:29:39 UTC 
sorry, no way I could make it for beta-2
Comment 6 Stefan Behlert 2005-08-17 10:37:46 UTC 
so in beta3 we can expect it to work?
