I've never done pcmcia install (done cd, network, nfs, ftp, local hd).
But from what I hear, installing from the pcmcia is fairly
straightforward.

If you have a network card (pcmcia) and a lan at work, try putting the cd
in an ftp'able place (beg your IT guys....if you are it).  Read the docs
for network install.  You'll need to make the network boot disk of course.

good luck
HTH!
