#32 PCMCIA-networkcard is not recognized automatically

[Anonymous]

Clonezilla 1.2.1.23

I have an old Xircom-PCMCIA-networkcard im my old laptop.

After booting Clomezilla and try to setup a samba-share to save the image on no network-card is recognized.

Steps I have to do manually:
CTRL-ALT-2 Go to 2nd console

$ sudo su -
# modprobe pcmcia_core
# modprobe pcmcia
# modprobe xirc2ps_cs
# modprobe i82092
# modprobe i82365

i82092 is not necessary maybe.

Then pcmcia starts and recognize my card.

Would be nice if Clonezilla would do this automatically

BTW: For such a clone-programm it is IMHO not necessary to load all those sound-modules automatically instead of pcmcia.

Did you try the latest Clonezilla live 1.2.1-39 or experimental Clonezilla live ?
Same problem ?
As for "For such a clone-programm it is IMHO not necessary to load all those
sound-modules automatically instead of pcmcia", yes, that's correct. Some solutions I have now:
1. Remove those modules
2. Add them in blacklist of modprobe.
However, these methods are too specific, I mean we have to spend some efforts to maintain such a table.
Do you have any better idea ?
