Yes, it was a pci->pcmcia card bridge issue.

If you do a 'man i82365', you get a list of options to go in your /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia file if your PCIC values equals i82365.

It shows values for many of the chipsets supported under the i82365 mode, mine was a Richo RL5c476 (found by cat /etc/pci). Since mine was a PCI->PCMCIA bridge, I selected the option for PCI only interrupts On RICOH chipset it is PCIC_OPTS="irq_mode=0". (WARNING, for other chipsets, this may mean ISA only, please read the man page).

Hope this was helpful.
