The first solution I suggested to you doesn't require an USB port: boot 
bsd.rd using pxeboot and proceed with a standard install using FTP.
(Instead of a standard install, you can also choose 'S' to get a shell, 
copy your files, /boot and /bsd and run installboot manually...

You can also use a pcmcia->cf adapter in a pcmcia port...
