*whacks head*

I knew I was forgettting something obvious. Well, not obvious but I've 
always done it on all my other machines. Been busy configuring and 
building a kernel that will actually load my PCMCIA modules first (the 
2.4.18-686 that ships with debian seems to have "missing symbol" issues).

Thanks for the wake-up.
