I recently ran into something similar.  man pccardc told me this (after
I tried a few other addresses and finally looked it up):


     5.   pccardmem addr

          Specifies the host address using PC-CARD controller(PCIC) will use
          to map cards to.  Because the PCIC needs a contiguous 16KB memory,
          you can only use the following four addresses:

          0xd0000  0xd0000-0xd3fff (default)
          0xd4000  0xd4000-0xd7fff
          0xd8000  0xd8000-0xdbfff
          0xdc000  0xdc000-0xdffff

          You can use "DEFAULT" instead of 0xd0000.  This subcommand corre-
          sponds to pccard_mem in rc.conf(5).

So one of those four addresses in the pccard_mem= should get you a bit
further.
