The "2" key works with a MK IV card only, iirc. There should be no PCMCIA port issues with the MK III card. Zetr0 posted this some month ago.

AFAIA:
All Blizzards that can be disabled use No:2...

...then again I'm often wrong.

IIRC you have to press "s" during reboot, "2" only disables the 060.

Yeah, pressing "2" only works during soft reboot, not regular start-up.
