Could you try something more recent? (2.6.11.x, 2.6.12-rc1 or something
similar?) Also, memory_cs got replaced by pcmciamtd so you should replace

    bind "memory_cs"

with

    bind "pcmciamtd"

This is correct. For the Cardbus Controller you're using you should use
"yenta_socket" and not "i82365".
