Description of problem:
Running RH Linux 7.1 on a Toshiba 2545XCDT laptop, system hangs upon
insertion of Linksys EtherFast 10/100 PCMCIA LAN card

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot RH Linux 7.1
2. Log in as root (or any other account)
3. insert Linksys EtherFast 10/100 PCMCIA card
OR
1. insert Linksys EtherFast 10/100 PCMCIA card
2. attempt to boot RH Linux 7.1
	

Actual Results:  in example 1 above - system stops responding, must be
rebooted without the PCMCIA card installed
in example 2 above - boot hangs at automount

Expected Results:  umm...ethernet card should have been integrated, and
network should work, right?
