ok so here goes...when i went to install gentoo it told me to configure my network card (pcmcia Netgear fa410tx). for the longest time it would not work. i left it alone for a while and came back to find out it was working and proceeded with the install. now i cannot get it to work...here's what it does. i hear no comforting beeps on boot up. about halfway through boot up the lights (link, activity, 100mbit) on the card blink (all of them at the same time). I cannot get on the internet. i have pcmcia compiled into my kernal and the appropriate driver (i think) for my network card. also from reading other messages in the laptop forum, i found out that i have not emerged pcmcia-cs.

Do you want to be able to eject/insert the card? If so, make sure you compile your driver as a module and install pcmcia-cs.

I am going to post my message (referenced in a couple other posts here) in this Laptops Forum, so see if that helps.
