yes ... possible media issue with card in slot 0. try the following
o Erase the pcmcia card and then do a xmodem
o try another slot
o Check the magnetic tip in the slot. Mechanically this sometimes gives
  a problem when you insert the card in a hurry
o Beef up your on baord flash and xmodem to the on board
o Change the config register to boot to rommon and change it back.
  Sometimes due to a power surge the chip that holds the register
  setting goes into a weird state
o Check to see if your onboard flash is inserted properly ... all pins
  match up
