Indeed, pcmcia-cs is not needed anymore, in fact, does not work with
my setup, I am using pcmciautils now. The web site has not been
updated because it refers to the project as it was with the kernel 2.4
implementation. The link is there because there are two serious
hardware problems when implementing PCMCIA with nanoengine: one is
that it needs external logic, the other is that it is necessary to
reprogram the bogus version of the CPLD that originally came with the
nanoEngine board.
