I an unable to get ppa to start when I boot COL 2.3, I have no problems
loading ppa and mounting my zip disk after boot.
I am unable to find any errors or messages that will point me to the
problem.
I am using a parrallel card using irq 11 port 278 (which are not being
used) so as not share the zip drive with the printer.

in /var/log/messages I get this on boot

lp1: using parport1 (polling):

This is what I get when loading via COAS

How can I get it to load ppa during boot.

Also each time I remove pcmcia it keeps getting loaded when I reboot and
I get ds:no sockets loaded
how can I stop pcmcia from loading.

tia....
