There's two causes for this problem.  First, you've not set
machdep.pccard.mem_start and/or machdpe.pccard.mem_end correctly.
This can be set in /etc/sysctl.conf.  However, that's become a less
likely problem in newer versions of the system.

The second is that you have a laptop with a lot of RAM, and the
address that we're picking conflicts with the RAM.  You'll have to
hack FreeBSD/src/sys/pccard/pcic_pci.c and change the #define
CARDBUS_SYS_RES_MEMORY_START to be something like 0x88000000.  This is
a bug FreeBSD has in assigning PCI resources.
