GeodeUseDriver takes care of all initialization in the driver. Simply call
the function and you're ready to start using the driver. Be sure to call
GeodeFreeDriver when you're done with it.
GEOS calls a driver when it is needed. If it isn't needed during bootup, it
isn't called up.
I might be misunderstanding your question, but here's an answer: The last
thing displayed in Swat when it is finished booting GEOS differs from one
machine to the next. On the Zoomer, two lines about zmanager are the last
things printed. When booting GEOS2X two lines about debug are the last lines
printed. On the OmniGo, the last line printed is about the pcmcia geode
exiting. For which platform are you writing a PCMCIA driver?
Hope that helps.
