>Description:
The system panics while booting if a pcmcia network card is already inserted.
When i boot it, without the card it boots. I insert the card but
'ifconfig wi0 up' panics the kernel
I have to handcopy the trace file, please holler on me, if more accurate traces are necessary
#ifconfig wi0 up
uvm_fault(0xcaf717e0, 9, 9, 1) -> 0xe
kernel: page fault trap, code=0
Stopped in pid 666.1 (ifconfig) at netbsd:mld6_sendpkt+0x335: movl 0x4(%eax), %eax
