Comment:
I have the same problem with a Toshiba A100-512 (see lspci & dmesg for further details). Booting from live/install cd (flight5) hangs (hard reset required) both times while configuring the cardbus bridge.

I installed dapper throug installing breezy, updating to dapper and uninstalling ubuntu-desktop, bluez-pcmcia-support and pcmcia-cs _before_ rebooting the system. After removing this packages, the lockup doesn't occur anymore. lspci and dmesg output originates from that system.

Since i am too lazy to c&p a complete screen of kernel output with pencil & paper :-) i will attach two screenshots from hung flight live and install cds.

HTH
