Description of problem: 1. The etc/init.d/pcmcia script does not report errors if components do not load. 2. After building a custom kernel from Redhat source a directory /lib/modules/{release}/pcmcia (full of symlinks) is created. If this directory exists then etc/init.d/pcmcia is unable to load modules but reports no errors. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.4.20 series of kernels in Redhat 9 How reproducible: Consistently reproducible Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make and install modular kernel from Redhat source 2. run /sbin/service pcmcia start 3. Actual results: No error reported but modules fail to load Expected results: Load the pcmcia modules (or report an error) Additional info: Deleting /lib/modules/{release}/pcmcia directory fixes the loading problem (but the pcmcia script should be fixed to report errors anyway).
This is fixed in current builds.
