SuSE does come with a modules diskette. They do not ask for it explicitly.
In many cases, it is not required. The do supply some modules on the boot

After booting from the Installation disk, put in the modules disk and follow
the steps. Since I don't have a laptop, I have not explicitly used pcmcia.
