Ahh, OK. Yes, all three disks should be from the same version. Perhaps I 
should add a version string to both pcmcia.img, and disk2.img. While 
disk2 and pcmcia change less frequently than the slinky(version).img, I 
do regenerate them for each release.

Looking at the script, it could use some cleaning up for sure. It should 
have worked, though. Was the floppy still mounted when you ran the 
pcmcia.sh script? It should have looked in /mnt/floppy/modules/pcmcia.

I'll see about cleaning the scripts up a bit. As I recall, I hacked them 
together hours after I should have been sleeping. ;)

Thanks for the feedback, glad you got it working.
