Sorry I'm no good at pcmcia/cf. I've learnt a lot yesterday while
looking for more information on google.

I *dont* want to use it. That's the point :-)

So it should be fine then ? Yet when I active the wifi part, I can't
access the flash part anylonger. Is there a way to confirm the flash
partition is being accessed in iomode

root at simpad:/var/tmp# ./dump_cis
Socket 0:
  no CIS present

Socket 1:
  dev_info
    fn_specific 700ns, 2kb
  mfc {
    vers_1 7.0, "SanDisk", "ConnectPlus"
    manfid 0xd601, 0x0101
    funcid network_adapter
    lan_technology wireless
Bus error

Looks like there's an error somewhere. Happends at the very same step
(tried more than once)

root at simpad:/var/tmp# cardctl ident
Socket 0:
  no product info available
Socket 1:
  product info: "SanDisk", "ConnectPlus"
  manfid: 0xd601, 0x0101
  function: 6 (network)

root at simpad:/var/tmp# cardctl config
Socket 0:
  not configured
Socket 1:
  Vcc 3.3V  Vpp1 0.0V  Vpp2 0.0V
  function 1:
    config base 0x0200
      option 0x45 status 0x00 pin 0x00 copy 0x00
    io 0xc8882000-0xc888200f [auto]

I'm preparing a kernel 2.4.29 if it can help...
