Did the A22M have a pccard slot or just pcmcia slot?

Andy:
What's the difference?
It's listed in the Hardware Manager as a Card Bus.
It uses a TI chip as the controller. Does that help?

PCCard is 32 bit and pcmcia is 16 bit (AIUI).  The difference we care about though is that genmac will not work with pcmcia, only pccard.

And Thomas, this is specifically because PCMCIA does *not* link itself to the PCI bus, but rather the ISA bus. GenMAC only supports devices attached to the PCI bus. CardBus is a 32-bit extension to the PCI bus (which is a 32 & 64-bit bus by design, vs ISA, which is 8 & 16-bit).
