Hi Thomas,

I've tried restarting pcmcia to the point of removing all the related
modules as well (pcmcia_core, pcmcia, yenta_socket, rsrc_nonstatic).
As I mentioned, I noticed that ide-cs was sticking around and there
was a related error in the syslog.  I think that module either may not
be loading right or may not be unloading right.

Hi Michael,

I made sure hotplug was installed but it didn't seem to have much
effect (I still can't mount after one insert/eject).  I'll try to
investigate this further but any other ideas would be great.  If
necessary, I can repost the syslog entries.

Thank you very much!
