RedHat 5.2, Gateway 91000 XL laptop pcmcia problems

Hi, all. I installed RH5.2 on the GW this weekend, and had a hell of a
time getting pcmcia card services to work. I eventually had to roll
back to a 2.0.35 kernel and build pcmcia-cs-3.0.5 to get it to
work. Anybody else had problems?

  Getting pcmcia card services working on my NEC Ready 220T with Redhat
5.1 was
effortless: I just put in the supp. disk during the install process and
it all worked.

I just upgraded to redhat 5.2. If I select pcmica during the install it
hangs.

Well, so I installed it without pcmcia---at install time.
After the install I had to boot in single user mode and disable pcmcia
services or it hangs
again during boot.

I haven't researched the problem yet.

1. problem install redhat in my laptop gateway 9550 (laptop won't boot from CD)

Hello everybody,

having trouble installing redhat on my laptop (gateway solo 9550)
I have gone to the BIOS setup and the laptop is setup to boot from cd
rom first but no luck, I put the CD in, re-start the laptop, and it
will not boot from my CD. I know is not the CD because I used the CD
to install Redhat in my desktop. Could somebody please help me.
