This shows just how little I know about PCMCIA devices...
I wouldn't have expected that module for a pcmcia device. It is included 
on disk2, but that doesn't really help much.

I'm looking through my scripts trying to see what changes I made, and 
where. It looks like there may be an older copy of the pcmcia scripts 
somewhere in this mess.

It does appear to be looking in the wrong place for the modules.

Give me a few minutes, and I'll see if I can track this down.
