Ahh, thanks for that bit of insight. I wasn't aware that 32 bit cardbus was not supported. I have a compact flash to PCMCIA adapter which I have a 128MB compact flash card installed in, it was detected fine (no damage seems to have occurred with either the card or au1100 PCMCIA slots). That solves that problem.
At first I was rather disappointed when I read this reply, but then I looked up the wireless card I want to use (Senao NL-2511 Plus EXT2, a Prism 2.5 based card) and it is PCMCIA Type II 16-bit which I suppose should work using the hostap driver.
I've used the hostap driver on 2.4 with a Db1x board. It should work fine with 2.6 as well.
