Description of Problem: The /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia script uses insmod if the /lib/modules/ {kernelversion}/pcmcia directory exists. This prevents any module dependencies from being satisfied by modprobe. Simply removing the /lib/modules/ {kernelversion}/pcmcia directory causes the rc script to revert to using modprobe instead of insmod, solving the problem. This may only occur with custom built kernel where one of the pcmcia drivers depends on another module. It's also quite possible that this scenario could occur in a Red Hat supplied kernel. It's probably best to use modprobe at all times if possible. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
