pci-to-pcmcia connection with "AirPrime 5220 EVDO"

[Khamar, Kalpit K (Kalpit)]

Hi Dave,
I tried both the kernel (2.4.20 and 2.6.1) and both the time i got the same thing for IO. The result i showed you in my previous email was from 2.6.1
I have 12 PCI slots on my system, does it matter for this IO issue?
Please let me know otherwise i will try another PCI-to-PCMCIA card ( P222 )
Thanks
Kalpit

This is the memory range you should use.

The bad news, as you noted, is that no IO port range has been reserved
for this secondary PCI bus.  Maybe try a newer kernel.

Can anyone else comment on whether current 2.6 kernels are capable of
allocating fresh resources for PCI bridges in this situation?  I
suspect the answer is "no"???
