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).

Lewis:
You had previously asked me some questions about the Card Bus
that I wasn't in a position to answer at that time.
Now I think you can find the answer to your question from the
PCI.LOG that I'm enclosing.
This is from my A22m IBM Laptop.
