I suspect he can downgrade to stable using the packages still on the
machine? Assuming he had enough disk space to start with.

Probably Jon just needs the kernel module package to go with the kernel
image he has, or just downgradin the kernel to match the modules he
already has. The debian web site has a package search, look for kernel
modules, just check if it has pcmcia_core and is the right version.

I have loads of custom kernel modules and kernels lurking for unstable
if you get no joy, although I may be as far back as 2.4.18, and could
take a while to transfer the kernel ones via floppies.
