    I thought pccardd(8) dealt with this automatically, but it looks like
    it is not for you. The way to deal with the conflict here may be some
    pccard.conf(5) trickery, not messing with pcic(4) settings in the
    kernel configuration. If you need more help,
    freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org might be a better place.

    This is easier. Just a,

      ifconfig_ep1="DHCP"

    In rc.conf(5) should be all you need.
