[ale] Why eth0 delayed?

[Stephan Uphoff]

Did you upgrade your pcmcia package ?

/etc/pcmcia/network start eth0

is called when pcmcia detects a Ethernet card.
(And it is the first ethernet card)

If you upgraded try to replace the new network script with
the old network script (Probably saved as network.O) or roll your
own.

Good luck
