Hey all,
I'm not entirely new to DflyBSD but I haven't kept any install of it on my PC
for any length of time. I've been a follower of the project for some time and I
finally have a machine I think I can run dfly on full time, but.. I need
some help.
I'm currently trying to get it working on my Thinkpad
570E(circa 2000). The problem is that the cardbus throws some errors and I
can't get any of the PCMCIA cards to load. I had a similar problem with
FBSD but I solved it by running `sysctl hw.cbb.start_32_io=0x4000` and
re-inserting the card. I tried the same thing from the Dfly installCD but it
didn't seem to work. I'm a bit wary about wiping FBSD off this machine in
favor of dragonfly and have the cardbus not work at all.
I got the idea to run that command from this page:

Any assistance much appreciated.
Andrew
