Actually, given that you simply want to check if your PCMCIA thing
works, couldn't you install with no desktop? I mean delect both Gnome
and KDE in the install dialogue. That would probably eliminate the audio
crap, whereupon you would have a bootable console-based system with
(hopefully) a working network. Then you do a proper install from the
full set of repos ("yum groupinstall KDE" or whatever).
