Please re-download 8.72 again. I think I discovered the issue with PCMCIA cards not being detected in 8.10 and original 8.72 downloaded here. If someone needs I can fix 8.10 as well to work with PCMCIA card.
[Update (2/19/03): Updated the zip file to have independent firmware updaters for PCMCIA and MINI-PCI cards. Earlier firmware updater did not work with PCMCIA card]
