	I have a somewhat similiar problem - during boot the card
isn't recognized except as some sort of generic memory card (mine is a
lucent card with the agere systems chip on it). 

	I found that after booting if I "eject" the card (virtual
ejection, it's a mini-pci format card) and "insert" it again it gets
recognized. It appears to be some sort of sequence problem. (Warning:
cheesy workaround inserted)

	At the end of my boot up procedure I just added a script that
uses cardctl to eject and insert the card, after which the card is
recognized. 

	HTH, but YYMV.

Be yourself. Especially, do feign affection. neither be cynical about love; 
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass.
