The problem that I moved the pcmcia init script around for was much
more obvious; in the version I installed, pcmcia came after network,
and the network startup failed.

The early chunk of my startup stuff is:
  S05kudzu
  S07syncconf
  S08pcmcia
  S10network
IIRC, only the pcmcia is in a non-default position.
