PCMCIA modules with 2 different kernels?

[<mfukatsu@gauss.elee.calpoly.edu>]

I am currently running Linux (RedHat 3.0.3) kernel 2.0.25 on my IBM
Thinkpad 755CD.  I noticed that the pcmcia modules are very sensitive to
which kernel loads them:
i.e.  I have 2 kernels, both 2.0.25, one with apm enabled and one without.

I compiled the pcmcia modules while running the kernel with apm and
everything works fine during startup.  However, when I boot with the kernel
without apm, during startup it says "failed to load modules. symbols from
linux 2.0.25 don't match your linux 2.0.25..."  or something to that
effect.  Basicly it seems like you can only use PCMCIA with the kernel you
compiled it with.

If someone knows a work around, I'd love to hear it!

Now, I know, why two kernels?  Well the Thinkpad needs to boot DOS first in
order to load the proper drivers into the soundcard.  I then use loadlin to
boot linux.  But loadlin will only work if the apm is disabled.  Hence the
need for this kernel.  If I don't care for sound, I use lilo to boot the
kernel with apm.

Thanks!
