This was an annoying thing so i added the line: "cardctl insert" in the pcmcia script so that every time i boot the card is correctly initialized and the eth0 interface is created (and i can start samba :)) I don't know if there is something more elegant than this, but i suggest thinking about add this command to the pcmcia rc script so that the cards are enabled at boot time.
