What kind of cardbus PCI controller to you have on your notebook? If it's
a Texas Inst. PCI 1131, the install program may not be checking for the
correct ID strings. I made a custom boot.img for my Dell Inspiron 3000
(which has the TI 1131) so that it can recognize the controller during the
install. It's at ftp://ftp.cz3.nus.edu.sg/redhat/patches/. You can try it
out and see if it works for you. There is also a pcmcia.patch file there
which is only a 1-line change to the pcmcia probing routine in the install
program.
