When you tell it to use PCMCIA, it calls the extra hardware disk
(hereafter known as exhw).  In that disk's top level directory are a
whole bunch of .o.gz files for various hardware (these are modules, I
guess?).  There is also a directory called pcmcia-modules/pcmcia that
contains a bunch more more .o files (not .gz), including one called
3c589_cs.o, but there aren't any ascii files anywhere, only binaries.

Where do I go from here?
