Re: PCMCIA = BOOT HANG

["Glen E. Moore" <pabongka netscape net>]

I'm not an expert here, and maybe I'm being overly simplistic in my 
approach.  I was hanging on pcmcia startup at boot, but I can still boot 
my machine by interactively bypassing pcmica during the boot cycle(press 
'I' when boot messages prompt you--sometimes takes several presses, 
perfect timing or something).  Then you should be able to disable 
whatever particular service you no longer want using "serviceconfig" or 
whatever once you have a running system.
