Gave that a try.  Still seems to be a problem.  Changed the pcmcia
startup as suggested.  Can see it during startup in the order I would
expect now.  It appears to setup eth0 as I would expect as well.

But once it is up the interface has an IP from DHCP but nothing gets in
or out.  I pull the card and reinsert it and then it works just fine.  

ifconfig shows the interface up and everything the same in both cases. 
After a reboot I even see RX and TX packets.  But if I try to ping
something on the lan it is no good.

Have a work around, pop the card out and back in.  Annoying but it
works.

Now I need to get back to getting a wireless card working.
