ok, found that, started following the directions and ended up with the 
following error:
# modprobe ath_pci
[root at ssmahome madwifi]# wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode sta
wlanconfig: ioctl: Input/output error
[root at ssmahome madwifi]# wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode sta
wlanconfig: ioctl: Input/output error


reason for doing it 2 times, was that on the first one i typed it in, 
the 2nd was a copy/paste from the howto page:

http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo


    Creating an Interface

MADWiFi supports /virtual access points/, which means you can create 
more than one wireless device per wireless card. By default, a /sta/ 
mode VAP is created by, which is MadWifi 
<http://madwifi.org/wiki/MadWifi> talk for a 'managed mode wireless 
interface'.

*If your svn snapshot is more recent than the 23rd January 2006, (r1407 
<http://madwifi.org/changeset/1407>) than you can skip the following step:*

If not, then follow these instructions to make a normal /station/ mode 
interface. Type (as root):

wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode sta
