network card no longer detected after hdd failure

So yeah, my laptop's hdd crashed, I cloned it to another.
It no longer detects my pcmcia card, model GCS2220.
I tried chrooting the install from livecd and reinstalling kernel, still nothing.
Odd thing is, before I chroot the card works fine, after chrooting ifconfig fails to work with eth0.

Re: network card no longer detected after hdd failure

Did you bind (mount -bind olddir newdir) /dev and mount /sys and /proc (I mean that's the place wherefrom ifconfig gets its information ) from the livecd's environment into ur chrooted environment ??
