>Description:
When installing on a system with PCMCIA card slots, /stand/sysinstall
may offer no viable choices of IRQs for the card slots, leaving the
user with no way to activate cards. For example, on a machine where 
IRQ's 5, 10, 11 are committed, none of the options presented by
/stand/sysinstall allows the user to select an unused IRQ for a
card slot. (On the machine where I saw this problem, IRQ 9 was 
free.) While it is possible to hunt for uncommitted IRQs and
move other devices to them, this is beyond the technical ken
of most users. /stand/sysinstall should offer a wider choice of
IRQs for the PCMCIA card slots, and should indicate which ones are
free.
>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt to install via a PCMCIA Ethernet adapter on a laptop on
which IRQs 5, 10, and 11 are committed to other hardware. This
situation can be forced on systems where it does not normally
occur by manipulating the kernel configuration at boot time.
