Those cards are not supported 

Forum: Installing Linux using or onto a PCMCIA device
Re: RedHat 6.1 Install using PC Card - arg! (Lionel B. Dyck)

From: David Hinds <dhinds@pcmcia.sourceforge.org> 

These two cards (Cadmus Micro 10/100 ethernet, IBM 4x CDROM) are
not on the supported cards list.  You're going to have a very
difficult time trying to modify the Red Hat installation disks to
support them.  There's no easy way to do it.

I'm not sure what the specific problem is with the CDROM card.  Part
of the problem with PCMCIA installations is that there is no space on
the install disks to put things to help diagnose problems.  And
without more information, it isn't possible to tell exactly what is
wrong, or to fix anything.

Your best bet is to buy or borrow a card that Red Hat says is actually
supposed to work with RH6.0.  Even still, PCMCIA installation is often
problematic, which is why Red Hat will tell you they don't officially
support it at all.

This form allows you to delete, move, or copy one or more messages. You can move messages by copying and deleting the original. The action will be applied to the messages you select above and all replies to those selected messages.

If you want to copy or move messages, specify the HyperNews path of a destination forum or message that all messages will be copied or moved to. The destination must already exist, so maybe create it first.

Path of Destination (a Forum or Message): (e.g. "test")

Notify Subscribers at destination
NO

If you want to delete messages (the default), specify that here. If you want to move messages, you need to delete the original messages; placeholders will be left pointing to where they were moved.

Delete Messages
NO

Caution: After deleteing messages (the default), if you have not copied them (i.e. no destination above), then the selected messages are not be recoverable.
