The PCMCIA startup script is in the "wrong place" in the boot
sequence. This is a Red Hat bug, but perhaps we can fix it
locally. In particular, pcmcia should be started much sooner
in the boot sequence so that the network can come up before
other packages decide to startup. Otherwise, laptops can
hang during bootup.
