Hmm..  If you have old kernel, pleas try to add 0x10 at the end of
config line of your Ethernet card's entry of /etc/pccard.conf.

For example,

	card "IBM Corp\." "Ethernet"
	        config  default "ed0" any
	        ether   0xff0 08:00:5a 00:04:ac

to, 

	card "IBM Corp\." "Ethernet"
	        config  default "ed0" any 0x10
	        ether   0xff0 08:00:5a 00:04:ac
