Hi,

I'm quite new to the pcmcia stuff, that is why the question might be
stupid, but I can't find a solution.

I'm running wlan-ng 0.1.13-pre1, kernel 2.4.17 pcmcia, cardutils etc
from pcmcia-cs 3.1.31 with the SMC pcmcia card and AP.

Everything works perfect including WEP, but on startup I don't get a
connection to the dhcp server.

First I start pcmcia-cs, the drivers are loaded and pcmcia-cs starts the
dhclient - but I couldn't start the wlan init script yet (I can't access
the pcmcia card before starting pcmcia-cs ...) and so I have to wait 5
minutes until dhclient searches for a dhcp server again.

/etc/init.d/wlan has to be started after loading the prism2_cs driver
but before running the dhclient. How can I do that?


Thanks a lot!
