Just an idea:

I had to add the following to my kernel config file on a toshibe
T3400 (486 SX, pcmcia x 1) to get my pcmcia network working:

options PCIC_ISA_ALLOC_IOBASE=0x300
options PCIC_ISA_ALLOC_IOSIZE=0xff

As I said, just an idea, it helped me. I don't remember the symptoms
before I added it, but it certainly wasn't working before.
