The PCMCIA slots do not come up as serial ports.  I guess there's serial
addapters that might plug into the slot but... You have to include
PCMCIA modules into the kernel and the PCMCIA Card Services package of
utilities that will load the appropriate modules for the card you plug
in.  The whole thing is pretty cool once you get it all configured.  I
now have a network and modem that auto detect and load the right modules
merely by plugging the card into the slot.  Now if I can only get my
wireless network to go <sigh>.
