wireless card does not work, no linux drivers tried
pcmcia slot does not work, will freeze on boot, fixed by overwriting file /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia with blank data

now that ive learned more about linux, i can solve the pcmcia issue easier
after redhat is installed, in grub, highlight the redhat line, and press 'e', then go down to the line starting with "kernel" and press 'e', then add "single" to the end of that line. linux will boot into a basic shell. then run
chkconfig pcmcia off
this will turn off pcmcia for all the runlevels, which makes it so you dont have to overwrite those files to get it to boot
