HostAp installing problem on Redhat 8 custom kernel

[Jerry]

First, is that a laptop or are you using a pci bridge?, second, did everything work before you compiled your kernel??

I have found that the problems that you descibe are usually the pci bridge, not the lancard driver.  Look for messages from the kernel similar to : "No interupt assigned to pci device line xx, please try 'pci=biosirq'" that is a dead givaway that the pci bridge isnt recognized.  

Are you using kernel pcmcia or external?
