	What is PCMCIA, and what is a PC card? - Knowledge Base
		PCMCIA is a non-profit trade association and standards body consisting of some 500 companies.
		PCMCIA has developed a standard for small, credit card-sized devices, called PC cards, that are often used in notebook computers.
		Cardbus is an extension of the latest PCMCIA standard, which expands the bus bandwidth and throughput to 32 bits at 33MHz.

	Cisco - PCMCIA Filesystem Compatibility Matrix and Filesystem Information
		This can be useful when copying a software image on the PCMCIA Flash card of a router or switch (source) which is to be used for another router or switch (target) of a different platform.
		Using a PCMCIA card formatted in the source platform may work in some cases; however, there are a number of situations where the bootstrap version of the target router does not support the formatted card, even if the filesystems are compatible.
		To be sure that a platform is able to boot from a linear PCMCIA Flash card, you should format it on the platform in question; however, the ability to boot from an ATA Flash disk is often times dependent on the platform.

	Making Sense of PCMCIA
		While the PCMCIA standard has grown significantly, it has done a pretty fair job of staying backward-compatible with earlier cards (a Type I card can be used in a Type II or III slot, for instance).
		Because of their small size, PCMCIA cards do not have DIP switches or jumpers; instead, the first level of configuration is done by a special piece of software called an enabler.
		Because of an oversight in the PCMCIA specification, the first enabler loaded will configure the card if it is installed when the machine is booted; if the card is inserted after the machine is booted, however, the last enabler loaded will configure the card.

	Linux.com - Linux PCMCIA HOWTO: Compilation and installation
		PCMCIA driver support is included in the 2.4 and later linux kernel trees.
		PCMCIA client driver options are listed in their regular driver categories; thus, PCMCIA network drivers are in a submenu of network drivers, and PCMCIA serial drivers are in a submenu of character drivers.
		It is safe to compile the user tools (cardmgr, cardctl, etc) in a PCMCIA package whose version number differs from the PCMCIA version number in the kernel source tree.

	About PCMCIA
		PCMCIA (Personal Computer Memory Card International Association) is an international standards body and trade association with over 100 member companies that was founded in 1989 to establish standards for Integrated Circuit cards and to promote interchangeability among mobile computers where ruggedness, low power, and small size were critical.
		Today, PCMCIA is continuing to develop and promote the ExpressCard Standard, the standard for hot swappable systems and modules that dramatically improves the I/O performance of both desktop and notebook computers by supporting both the PCI Express and Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 standard.
		PCMCIA publishes the ExpressCard Standard which contains all of the physical and electrical specifications for ExpressCard technology.

	Personal Computer Memory Card International Association - PCMCIA
		Short for Personal Computer Memory Card International Association, PCMCIA is a trade association founded in 1989 that is responsible for the ongoing development of the PCMCIA standard.
		PCMCIA cards are hardware interfaces that are slightly bigger than a standard credit card that enable additional functionality for laptop computers and other portable devices.
		The image to the right is an example of a PCMCIA SMC EZ Card 10/100 wireless network card, which enables a laptop computer or other portable device to connect to a wireless network.

	PC card - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		PCMCIA cards were designed by the US computer industry to compete with the Japanese JEIDA cards.
		CardBus are PCMCIA 2.1 or later (JEIDA 4.2 or later) 32-bit PCMCIA cards, introduced in 1995 and present in laptops from late 1997 onward.
		ExpressCard is a later specification from the PCMCIA, intended as a replacement for the PC card, however, many notebook computers as of late 2006 still ship with PC card capabilities.

	TuxScreen: PCMCIA
		EricJorgensen additionally notes that there are a large number (dozens) of Kingston compact flash ethernet cards available on eBay quite cheaply, including the pcmcia adapter sleeve.
		The Linksys PCM100 (not to be confused with PCMPC100, PCM200, PCM100H1, etc) is 3.3v pcmcia and is ne2k compatible.
		He further believes that the Linksys WCF11 is an example of a Prism2-based CF card, which should presumably work (you need prism2 direvers installed, of course, but that's not too hard).

	PCMCIA definition - isp.webopedia.com - The Glossary for Internet Service Providers
		Short for Personal Computer Memory Card International Association, and pronounced as separate letters, PCMCIA is an organization consisting of some 500 companies that has developed a standard for small, credit card-sized devices, called PC Cards.
		Originally designed for adding memory to portable computers, the PCMCIA standard has been expanded several times and is now suitable for many types of devices.
		For example, you can slip in a fax modem card when you want to send a fax and then, when you're done, replace the fax modem card with a memory card.

		PCMCIA devices are dynamically configured, so, for example, interrupts are allocated as needed, rather than specifically assigned to particular cards or sockets.
		Resource allocation for PCMCIA devices In theory, it should not really matter which interrupt is allocated to which device, as long as two devices are not configured to use the same interrupt.

		If a PCMCIA modem is already configured when Linux boots, it may be incorrectly identified as an ordinary built-in serial port.
		This is harmless, however, when the PCMCIA drivers take control of the modem, it will be assigned a different device slot.
		PCMCIA SCSI adapters do not supply termination power, so if it is required, an external device must supply it.

	PCMCIA Cardbus Description, PinOut and Signal Names
		PCMCIA Defines both the Electrical and Physical specifications for a 68 pin interface residing in one of 3 form factors, which differ only in thickness;
		CardBus is fully backward compatible with the older PCMCIA [PC-card design]; however there may be some compatibility issues with the early versions of the PCMCIA standards.
		PCMCIA devices; both CardBus and PC card use a 68 pin connector, with two rows of 34 pins, @ 0.05 inch spacing.

		The command can be safely executed whether or not the PCMCIA system is loaded, but the command may fail if you are using other PCMCIA devices at the time (even if their configurations are not explicitly dependant on the scheme setting).
		Having the root filesystem on a PCMCIA device is tricky because the Linux PCMCIA system is not designed to be linked into the kernel.
		The initrd image absolutely must reside on a bootable device: this generally cannot be put on a PCMCIA device.

	Linux PCMCIA HOWTO: Compilation and installation
		There is an unfortunate deficiency in the kernel config process in 1.2.X kernels, in that it is not possible to set configuration options (like SLIP compression) for a loadable module, so it is probably better to just link SLIP into the kernel if you need it.
		Compiling and installing a clean PCMCIA source distribution will overwrite the network script, breaking the link to the network control panel.
		Red Hat bundles their slightly modified PCMCIA source distribution in their kernel SRPM, rather than as a separate package.
