[nflug] openBSD pcimcia

[DANIEL MAGNUSZEWSKI]

What type of laptop? What type/brand/chipset of pcmcia card (I'm
assuming a wireless card)?

FWIW: I have FreeBSD 6.1 running on an old IBM ThinkPad 600e with a DWL
650+ wireless pcmcia card. I had to do a little playing around with it,
but ended up getting it to work nicely. I received some good advice on
the FreeBSD mobile ( freebsd-mobile at freebsd.org ) mailing list. Perhaps
you should try both Open and Free BSDs to see which works better for
your hardware.

none of the pcimcia cards I put in my laptop will work, the boot gets
stuck on "setting tty flags" , I've tried waiting to put the card in
after I boot into a prompt for openBSD and that seems to either  work
or
fail, I am not sure ...a message pops up in blue I don't remember the
entire messege, I think the last part of the message refers to
status.c
or something. I don't know how to get the system to recognize a new
pcimcia card anyhow, I'm not sure where I should start to trouble
shoot
or the tools to use, can anyone get me started?
