.... I think, pcmcia packages were not installed yet in your machine, try to use the software package manager then look for pcmcia...

try to check ur hardware compatibiity here http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/hardware.php3

hi, just want to suggest, maybe u should check at the mandrake website if ur new hardware are already supported with the mandrake distro u have, as u have said that the Mandrake u have in hand works fine with ur older machine but not with the new one, so it shouldnt be a cd installer problem, maybe a hardware support problem... i would like to suggest also that u should try mandrake 10 release.. :)

below are the MD5checksum of mandrake10 iso that I cut and paste it here from mandrake download page - http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/ftp.php3 - if u match these with ur just downloaded iso's, it should be good ad3d50fe12c0672a7e4d32b466ab6851 Mandrakelinux10.0-Official-Download-CD1.i586.iso a64fbcb98d6aa2cd4ac287e563593678 Mandrakelinux10.0-Official-Download-CD2.i586.iso bf7a7dad80cf3f41453d572d3ffed09b Mandrakelinux10.0-Official-Download-CD3.i586.iso

... hi, just want to say something, though I'm new here also, i've done what u did already, meaning, u've just added additional medium or source of RPM that u wish to install... try as root at the commandline.. type drakrpm-edit-media and you will see that there's already additional medium besides u'r disk1-2-3... so, if u wish to install additional rpm packages, and its not available with U'r CD's, and its available via contrib, u may able to install that package u wish to install. :)
