This card is now handled by the the (aic7xxx) HOTPLUG PCI interface.
It is not at all clear on the docs, but do NOT use the apa1480_cb dirver.
It crashes my 2.4.x system.
Configure the kernel 2.4.9 with:
CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y
CONFIG_CARDBUS=y
CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX=m
# modprobe aic7xxx

To keep pcmcia from autoloading apa1480_cb when the card is inserted,
Edit: /etc/pcmcia/config
comment out the "apa1480_cb" stuff or try to replace it with aic7xxx
