Hi there. I have an old laptop Toshiba Tecra 510 (P1, 147MB RAM, 30GB HDD) and I installed FreeBSD 7.2.
For networking I have a PCMCIA card for wired network. The problem is that I cannot start and run PCMCIA
As I know in Linux there is a tool pcmciautils for this pc-cards, but in FreeBSD I have no idea.

Does anyone knows how to deal with this PC cards?
