I did a little experimenting with my laptop and LTSP server.  First,
make sure that the pcmcia network card is supported by pcmcia-cs.  You
will have to use an etherboot floppy because the network adaptor can not
have a boot rom.  You will also have to use a special etherboot disk
that includes pcmcia-cs available from here:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ltsp/wireless_ltsp-3.0.3-i386.tgz?download
under the guise of wireless booting (yet another interesting
possibility) but I couldn't go further because my cards weren't
supported.

Good Luck.
