Can one buy a mini-PCI replacement card? My laptop has a Realtek RTL8139,
which is on a mini-PCI card I think. I don't use it, as I use the
wireless exclusively now for the laptop. Can I just remove the Mini-PCI
card? (Currently I can't boot this machine without loading the RTL8139
driver) Can one buy a wireless mini-PCI card (when the driver is finally
released for it that is)?
