According to: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-pcmcia/2006-April/003488.html adding the kernel parameter: reserve=0xfd000000,0xffffff should fix this. However other people report that with 2.6.20 that does not work: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-pcmcia/2007-April/004500.html Please try and report back. I have tried booting with the kernel parameter "reserve=0xfd000000,0xffffff" and it has no affect on resolving the issue. Additionally, prior to upgrading to 2.6.20, I had 2.6.18 installed. I tried the "reserve=0xfd000000,0xffffff" boot parameter with it and received the same error. The second link you offered suggests that this fix works with 2.6.17, so that may be a clue that something was introduced in 2.6.18 that caused this issue. Try adding pcmcia_core.probe_mem=0 to the kernel command line. Fedora apologizes that these issues have not been resolved yet. We're sorry it's taken so long for your bug to be properly triaged and acted on. We appreciate the time you took to report this issue and want to make sure no important bugs slip through the cracks.
